Full data separation between personal work applications will soon help people who use their Android phones for both work play. Or so says Sundar chai at the I/O conference dnesday. The Android, Chrome, Apps boss showed off the new Android for rk service, which aims to bolster Android’s security features to make it more business friendly. 

Android at rk attempts to alleviate the need for someone to have separate devices for work home by storing data from applications in different partitions of the system. That sounds an awful lot like Knox, Samsung’s mobile security offering for its mobile devices, indeed, chai cited Samsung for its contributions in Android for rk.

is working with major device makers to create a “certified for Android rk” program before the end of the year, ensuring that businesses have a decent selection of options for employees. 

Android at rk will debut in the upcoming Android OS update that’s set to launch later this year. A separate application will be made available for those not on the latest version of the OS, though it looks like it will be limited to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Swich up. 

Now that your device is secured, it’s time to get some work taken care of. In the upcoming version of Android, users can edit documents right from the Documents app. No longer will you have to open a file inside of another application in order to edit it. ’s Quick Office acquisition looks to finally be paying off, with genuine integration available to users. 

During the keynote, chai edited a rd document directly from an email attachment. In previous versions of Android, these files would be converted into a .doc file before editing could take place. 

Since the heart of Docs lives within Drive, it’s not too surprising to see some features cross paths. Now, within a shared document, users can suggest specific edits within a file, the owner can accept them easily after review. 

As part of the I/O keynote, chai also announced Drive for rk, a premium edition of Apps with unlimited cloud storage.
