Discussion

DOD policy requires BYOAD devices with DOD data be managed by a DOD MDM server, MAM server, or VMI system. This ensures the device can be monitored for compliance with the approved security baseline and the work profile can be removed when the device is out of compliance, which protects DOD data from unauthorized exposure. Note: Technical limitations prohibit using Apple iOS/iPadOS User Enrollment in most DOD environments. Reference: DOD policy "Use of Non-Government Mobile Devices".  SFR ID: FMT_SMF_EXT.1.1 #47
