A computer-implemented method for monitoring a mobile-computing device using geo-location information is disclosed. The method may include a learning phase. During the learning phase, a user may be located within a first range of physical locations during a recurring time period. The method may include generating a location profile for a mobile-computing device of the user and receiving a device-monitoring policy for the mobile-computing device from an administrator. The location profile may correlate the first range of physical locations with the recurring time period. The method may further include detecting, after the learning phase, that the mobile-computing device is outside the first range of physical locations during a first instance of the recurring time period. The method may also include implementing the device-monitoring policy after detecting that the mobile-computing device is outside the first range of physical locations during the first instance of the recurring time period.
