We've heard that Google intended to really make a push for greater corporate adoption with the L release, and the company touched on some of its plans in today's keynote. It confirmed that Android will empower companies to separate personal data from work data using containers without outside companies having to apply additional code to their devices. Interestingly, this comes thanks in part to Samsung, which has contributed some of its KNOX code to the next version of Android.

Regardless of how enticing this may be to corporations, many employees won't have access to the L release of Android for months, if not years, after its release. To address this, Google will release an app that brings much of this security to older devices.

Developers will be able to take advantage of this functionality without having to make any changes to their existing apps. On the consumer side, companies will be able to purchase said apps in bulk.

For more details on the KNOX integration, here's a full press release.
