Vulnerability discussion

When a mobile device is no longer going to be managed by MDM technologies, its protected/sensitive data must be sanitized because it will no longer be protected by the MDM software, so it is at much greater risk of unauthorized access and disclosure.SFR ID: FMT_SMF.1.1 #42

Check content

This validation procedure is performed on the MDM Administration Console. Check whether the appropriate setting is configured on the MDM Administration Console: 1. Ask the MDM administrator to verify on the MDM console the "Device + SD Card Wipe" setting is automatically implemented upon unenrollment of the device from the MDM. If the "Device + SD Card Wipe" setting is not enabled upon device unenrollment from the MDM, this is a finding.

Fix text

Configure the mobile device to wipe protected data from the device when it is unenrolled from MDM. On the MDM Administration Console, set the MDM to automatically enable the "Device + SD Card Wipe" when the device is unenrolled from the MDM.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
