System security

  • Threat scan on apps: Require (default) enables Google Play Protect to scan apps before and after they're installed. If it detects a threat, it may warn users to remove the app from the device. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might not enable or run Google Play Protect to scan apps.

Dedicated devices

Use these settings to configure a kiosk-style experience on your dedicated devices. You can configure devices to run one app, or run many apps. When a device is set with kiosk mode, only the apps you add are available. These settings apply to Android Enterprise dedicated devices. They don't apply to Android Enterprise fully managed devices.

Kiosk mode: Choose if the device runs one app or runs multiple apps.

  • Not configured: Intune doesn't change or update this setting.

  • Single app: Users can only access a single app on the device. When the device starts, only the specific app starts. Users are restricted from opening new apps or from changing the running app.

    • Select a managed app: Select the managed Google Play app from the list.

      If you don't have any apps listed, then add some Android apps to the device. Be sure to assign the app to the device group created for your dedicated devices.

    Important

    When using single-app kiosk mode, dialer/phone apps may not function properly.

  • Multi-app: Users can access a limited set of apps on the device. When the device starts, only the apps you add start. You can also add some web links that users can open. When the policy is applied, users see icons for the allowed apps on the home screen.

    Important

    For multi-app dedicated devices, the Managed Home Screen app from Google Play must be:

    • Added as a client app in Intune
    • Assigned to the device group created for your dedicated devices

    The Managed Home Screen app isn't required to be in the configuration profile, but it is required to be added as a client app. When the Managed Home Screen app is added as a client app, any other apps you add in the configuration profile are shown as icons on the Managed Home Screen app.

    When using multi-app kiosk mode, dialer/phone apps may not function properly.

    • Add: Select your apps from the list.

      If the Managed Home Screen app isn't listed, then add it from Google Play. Be sure to assign the app to the device group created for your dedicated devices.

      You can also add other Android apps and web apps created by your organization to the device. Be sure to assign the app to the device group created for your dedicated devices.

    • Virtual home button: A soft-key button that returns users to the Managed Home Screen so users can switch between apps. Your options:

      • Not configured (default): A home button isn't shown. Users must use the back button to switch between apps.
      • Swipe up: A home button shows when a user swipes up on the device.
      • Floating: Shows a persistent, floating home button on the device.
    • Leave kiosk mode: Enable allows Administrators to temporarily pause kiosk mode to update the device. To use this feature, the administrator:

      1. Continues to select the back button until the Exit kiosk button is shown.
      2. Selects the Exit kiosk button, and enters the Leave kiosk mode code PIN.
      3. When finished, select the Managed Home Screen app. This step relocks the device into multi-app kiosk mode.

      When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might prevent administrators from pausing kiosk mode. If the administrator continues to select the back button, and selects the Exit kiosk button, then a message states that a passcode is required.

      • Leave kiosk mode code: Enter a 4-6 digit numeric PIN. The administrator uses this PIN to temporarily pause kiosk mode.
    • Set custom URL background: Enter a URL to customize the background screen on the dedicated device. For example, enter http://contoso.com/backgroundimage.jpg.

      Note

      For most cases, we recommend starting with images of at least the following sizes:

      • Phone: 1080x1920 px
      • Tablet: 1920x1080 px

      For the best experience and crisp details, it's suggested that per device image assets be created to the display specifications.

      Modern displays have higher pixel densities and can display equivalent 2K/4K definition images.

    • Wi-Fi configuration: Enable shows the Wi-Fi control on the Managed Home Screen, and allows users to connect the device to different WiFi networks. Enabling this feature also turns on device location. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might not show the Wi-Fi control on the Managed Home Screen. It prevents users from connecting to Wi-Fi networks while using the Managed Home Screen.

    • Bluetooth configuration: Enable shows the Bluetooth control on the Managed Home Screen, and allows users to pair devices over Bluetooth. Enabling this feature also turns on device location. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might not show the Bluetooth control on the Managed Home Screen. It prevents users from configuring Bluetooth and pairing devices while using the Managed Home Screen.

    • Flashlight access: Enable shows the flashlight control on the Managed Home Screen, and allows users to turn the flashlight on or off. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might not show the flashlight control on Managed Home Screen. It prevents users from using the flashlight while using the Managed Home Screen.

    • Media volume control: Enable shows the media volume control on the Managed Home Screen, and allows users to adjust the device's media volume using a slider. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might not show the media volume control on Managed Home Screen. It prevents users from adjusting the device's media volume while using the Managed Home Screen, unless their hardware buttons support it.

    • Screen saver mode: Enable shows a screensaver on the Managed Home Screen when the device is locked or times out. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might not show a screensaver on the Managed Home Screen.

      Jul 29, 2017  The only way to get a 'Traktor Scratch Pro 2' license is to buy the 'TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO 2 SOFTWARE & TIMECODE KIT.' for 99€ But the Software & Timecode Kit cannot be downloaded and is only beeing send via post. May 19, 2017  Hello. I am a Traktor Pro 2 user (serial come with my S4) Some months ago i bought an S8 (that come with a Scratch Pro 2 license - never installed because i always used Traktor Pro 2). Now i decided to buy two turntable, so i need my copy of Traktor Scratch 2 Pro. Hi i need help i bought traktor scratch pro 2 from someone who owned a z2. I was thinking scratch will work fine even if i do not owned the mixer, but when i go to download the software from the registed prodacts it says traktor scratch pro 2 MK2 for TKZ2, an when i install its just installin traktor pro not scratch. Buy traktor scratch pro 2 software only. Sep 13, 2012  With TRAKTOR 2 technology inside you'll get a DJ product guaranteed to be intuitive creative and addictive. Pure & Simple As stated above TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO 2 features an intuitive software interface as well as TruWave frequency-specific. Apr 09, 2014  The reason this is confusing is because the software plus timecode kit is the exact same price as Traktor Pro 2 software, $99. I’m wondering if there is any disadvantage to purchasing software and timecode kit, likemaybe limited to only Traktor certified interfaces as it says.

Power settings

  • Time to lock screen: Enter the maximum time a user can set until the device locks. For example, if you set this setting to 10 minutes, then users can set the time from 15 seconds up to 10 minutes. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting.

  • Screen on while device plugged in: Choose which power sources cause the device's screen to stay on when plugged in.

Users and Accounts

  • Add new users: Block prevents users from adding new users. Each user has a personal space on the device for custom Home screens, accounts, apps, and settings. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow users to add other users to the device.

  • User removal: Block prevents users from removing users. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow users to remove other users from the device.

  • Account changes (dedicated devices only): Block prevents users from modifying accounts. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow users to update user accounts on the device.

    Note

    This setting isn't honored on device owner (fully managed) devices. If you configure this setting, then the setting is ignored, and has no impact.

  • User can configure credentials: Block prevents users from configuring certificates assigned to devices, even devices that aren't associated with a user account. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might make it possible for users to configure or change their credentials when they access them in the keystore.

  • Personal Google Accounts: Block prevents users from adding their personal Google account to the device. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow users to add their personal Google account.

Applications

  • Allow installation from unknown sources: Allow lets users turn on Unknown sources. This setting allows apps to install from unknown sources, including sources other than the Google Play Store. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might prevent users from turning on Unknown sources.
  • Allow access to all apps in Google Play store: When set to Allow, users get access to all apps in Google Play store. They don't get access to the apps the administrator blocks in Client Apps. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might force users to only access the apps the administrator makes available in the Google Play store, or apps required in Client Apps.
  • App auto-updates: Devices check for app updates daily. Choose when automatic updates are installed. Your options:
    • Not configured: Intune doesn't change or update this setting.
    • User choice: The OS might default to this option. Users can set their preferences in the managed Google Play app.
    • Never: Updates are never installed. This option isn't recommended.
    • Wi-Fi only: Updates are installed only when the device is connected to a Wi-Fi network.
    • Always: Updates are installed when they're available.

Connectivity

  • Always-on VPN: Enable sets the VPN client to automatically connect and reconnect to the VPN. Always-on VPN connections stay connected. Or, immediately connect when users lock their device, the device restarts, or the wireless network changes.

    Choose Not configured to disable always-on VPN for all VPN clients.

    Important

    Be sure to deploy only one Always-on VPN policy to a single device. Deploying multiple Always-on VPN policies to a single device isn't supported.

  • VPN client: Choose a VPN client that supports Always On. Your options:

    • Cisco AnyConnect
    • F5 Access
    • Palo Alto Networks GlobalProtect

    Important

    • The VPN client you choose must be installed on the device, and it must support per-app VPN in work profiles. Otherwise, an error occurs.
    • You do need to approve the VPN client app in the Managed Google Play Store, sync the app to Intune, and deploy the app to the device. After you do this, then the app is installed in the user's work profile.
    • You still need to configure the VPN client with a VPN profile, or through an app configuration profile.
    • There may be known issues when using per-app VPN with F5 Access for Android 3.0.4. For more information, see F5's release notes for F5 Access for Android 3.0.4.
  • Lockdown mode: Enable forces all network traffic to use the VPN tunnel. If a connection to the VPN isn't established, then the device won't have network access. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow traffic to flow through the VPN tunnel or through the mobile network.

  • Recommended global proxy: Enable adds a global proxy to the devices. When enabled, HTTP and HTTPS traffic, including some apps on the device, use the proxy you enter. This proxy is only a recommendation. It's possible some apps won't use the proxy. Not configured (default) doesn't add a recommended global proxy.

    For more information on this feature, see setRecommendedGlobalProxy (opens an Android site).

    When enabled, also enter the Type of proxy. Your options:

    • Direct: Manually enter the proxy server details, including:

      • Excluded hosts: Enter a list of host names or IP addresses that won't use the proxy. This list can include an asterisk (*) wildcard and multiple hosts separated by semicolons (;) with no spaces. For example, enter 127.0.0.1;web.contoso.com;*.microsoft.com.
    • Proxy Auto-Config: Enter the PAC URL to a proxy autoconfiguration script. For example, enter https://proxy.contoso.com/proxy.pac.

      For more information on PAC files, see Proxy Auto-Configuration (PAC) file (opens a non-Microsoft site).

    For more information on this feature, see setRecommendedGlobalProxy (opens an Android site).

Work profile only

These settings apply to Android Enterprise enrollment types where Intune controls only the Work Profile, such as Android Enterprise Work profile enrollment on a personal or bring-your-own device (BYOD).

Work profile settings

  • Copy and paste between work and personal profiles: Block prevents copy-and-paste between work and personal apps. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow users to share data using copy-and-paste with apps in the personal profile.

  • Data sharing between work and personal profiles: Choose if apps in the work profile can share with apps in the personal profile. For example, you can control sharing actions within applications, such as the Share… option in the Chrome browser app. This setting doesn't apply to copy/paste clipboard behavior. Your options:

    • Device default: The default sharing behavior of the device, which varies depending on the Android version. By default, sharing from the personal profile to the work profile is allowed. Also by default, sharing from the work profile to the personal profile is blocked. This setting prevents sharing of data from the work to the personal profile. On devices running versions 6.0 and later, Google doesn't block sharing from the personal profile to the work profile.
    • Prevent any sharing across boundaries: Prevents sharing between work and personal profiles.
    • Apps in work profile can handle sharing request from personal profile: Enables the built-in Android feature that allows sharing from the personal to work profile. When enabled, a sharing request from an app in the personal profile can share with apps in the work profile. This setting is the default behavior for Android devices running versions earlier than 6.0.
    • No restrictions on sharing: Enables sharing across the work profile boundary in both directions. When you select this setting, apps in the work profile can share data with unbadged apps in the personal profile. This setting allows managed apps in the work profile to share with apps on the unmanaged side of the device. So, use this setting carefully.
  • Work profile notifications while device locked: Block prevents window notifications, including toasts, incoming calls, outgoing calls, system alerts, and system errors from showing on locked devices. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might show notifications.

  • Default app permissions: Sets the default permission policy for all apps in the work profile. Starting with Android 6, users are prompted to grant certain permissions required by apps when the app is launched. This policy setting lets you decide if users are prompted to grant permissions for all apps in the work profile. For example, you assign an app to the work profile that requires location access. Normally that app prompts users to approve or deny location access to the app. Use this policy to automatically grant permissions without a prompt, automatically deny permissions without a prompt, or let users decide. Your options:

    • Device default
    • Prompt
    • Auto grant
    • Auto deny

    You can also use an app configuration policy to grant permissions for individual apps (Client Apps > App configuration policies).

  • Add and remove accounts: Block prevents users from manually adding or removing accounts in the work profile. For example, when you deploy the Gmail app into an Android work profile, you can prevent users from adding or removing accounts in this work profile. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow adding accounts in the work profile.

    Note

    Google accounts can't be added to a work profile.

  • Contact sharing via Bluetooth: Enable allows sharing and access to work profile contacts from another device, including a car, that's paired using Bluetooth. Enabling this setting may allow certain Bluetooth devices to cache work contacts upon first connection. Disabling this policy after an initial pairing/sync may not remove work contacts from a Bluetooth device.

    When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might not share work contacts.

    This setting applies to:

    • Android work profile devices running Android OS v6.0 and newer
  • Autotune efx+ cracked. Screen capture: Block prevents screenshots or screen captures on the device in the work profile. It also prevents the content from being shown on display devices that don't have a secure video output. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow getting screenshots.

  • Display work contact caller-id in personal profile: Block doesn't show the work contact caller number in the personal profile. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might show work contact caller details.

    This setting applies to:

    • Android OS v6.0 and newer versions
  • Search work contacts from personal profile: Block prevents users from searching for work contacts in apps in the personal profile. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow searching for work contacts in the personal profile.

  • Camera: Block prevents access to the camera on the device in the work profile. The camera on the personal side is not affected by the setting. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow access to the camera.

  • Allow widgets from work profile apps: Enable allows users to put widgets exposed by apps on the home screen. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might disable this feature.

    For example, Outlook is installed on your users' work profiles. When set to Enable, users can put the agenda widget on the device home screen.

  • Require Work Profile Password: Require forces a passcode policy that only applies to apps in the work profile. By default, users can use the two separately defined PINs. Or, users can combine the PINs into the stronger of the two PINs. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow users to use work apps without entering a password.

    This setting applies to:

    • Android 7.0 and newer with the work profile enabled
  • Minimum password length: Enter the minimum length the password must have, between 4 and 16 characters.

  • Maximum minutes of inactivity until work profile locks: Enter the length of time devices must be idle before the screen is automatically locked. Users must enter their credentials to regain access. For example, enter 5 to lock the device after 5 minutes of being idle. When the value is blank or set to Not configured, Intune doesn't change or update this setting.

    On devices, users can't set a time value greater than the configured time in the profile. Users can set a lower time value. For example, if the profile is set to 15 minutes, users can set the value to 5 minutes. Users can't set the value to 30 minutes.

  • Number of sign-in failures before wiping device: Enter the number of wrong passwords allowed before the device is wiped, from 4-11. 0 (zero) might disable the device wipe functionality. When the value is blank, Intune doesn't change or update this setting.

  • Password expiration (days): Enter the number of days until user passwords must be changed (from 1-365).

  • Required password type: Enter the required password complexity level, and whether biometric devices can be used. Your options:

    • Device default
    • Low security biometric: Strong vs. weak biometrics (opens Android's web site)
    • Required
    • At least numeric: Includes numeric characters, such as 123456789.
    • Numeric complex: Repeated or consecutive numbers, such as 1111 or 1234, aren't allowed.
    • At least alphabetic: Includes letters in the alphabet. Numbers and symbols aren't required.
    • At least alphanumeric: Includes uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and numeric characters.
    • At least alphanumeric with symbols: Includes uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numeric characters, punctuation marks, and symbols.
  • Prevent reuse of previous passwords: Use this setting to restrict users from creating previously used passwords. Enter the number of previously used passwords that can't be used, from 1-24. For example, enter 5 so users can't set a new password to their current password or any of their previous four passwords. When the value is blank, Intune doesn't change or update this setting.

  • Fingerprint unlock: Block prevents users from using the device fingerprint scanner to unlock the device. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow users to unlock the device using a fingerprint.

  • Smart Lock and other trust agents: Block prevents Smart Lock or other trust agents from adjusting lock screen settings on compatible devices. If devices are in a trusted location, then this feature, also known as a trust agent, lets you disable or bypass the device lock screen password. For example, bypass the work profile password when devices are connected to a specific Bluetooth device, or when devices are close to an NFC tag. Use this setting to prevent users from configuring Smart Lock.

    When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting.

Password

These password settings apply to personal profiles on devices that use a work profile.

  • Minimum password length: Enter the minimum length the password must have, between 4 and 16 characters.

  • Maximum minutes of inactivity until screen locks: Enter the length of time devices must be idle before the screen is automatically locked. Users must enter their credentials to regain access. For example, enter 5 to lock the device after 5 minutes of being idle. When the value is blank or set to Not configured, Intune doesn't change or update this setting.

    On devices, users can't set a time value greater than the configured time in the profile. Users can set a lower time value. For example, if the profile is set to 15 minutes, users can set the value to 5 minutes. Users can't set the value to 30 minutes.

    When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting.

System security

Off
  • Threat scan on apps: Require enforces that the Verify Apps setting is enabled for work and personal profiles. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting.

    This setting applies to:

    • Android 8 (Oreo) and above
  • Prevent app installations from unknown sources in the personal profile: By design, Android Enterprise work profile devices can't install apps from sources other than the Play Store. This setting allows administrators more control of app installations from unknown sources. Block prevents app installations from sources other than the Google Play Store in the personal profile. When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow app installations from unknown sources in the personal profile. By nature, work profile devices are intended to be dual-profile:

    • A work profile managed using MDM.
    • A personal profile that's isolated from MDM management.

Connectivity

  • Always-on VPN: Enable sets a VPN client to automatically connect and reconnect to the VPN. Always-on VPN connections stay connected. Or, immediately connect when users lock their device, the device restarts, or the wireless network changes.

    When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might disable always-on VPN for all VPN clients.

    Important

    Be sure to deploy only one Always On VPN policy to a single device. Deploying multiple Always VPN policies to a single device isn't supported.

  • VPN client: Choose a VPN client that supports Always On. Your options:

    • Cisco AnyConnect
    • F5 Access
    • Palo Alto Networks GlobalProtect
    • Pulse Secure
    • Custom
      • Package ID: Enter the package ID of the app in the Google Play store. For example, if the URL for the app in the Play store is https://play.google.com/store/details?id=com.contosovpn.android.prod, then the package ID is com.contosovpn.android.prod.

    Important

    • The VPN client you choose must be installed on the device, and it must support per-app VPN in work profiles. Otherwise, an error occurs.
    • You do need to approve the VPN client app in the Managed Google Play Store, sync the app to Intune, and deploy the app to the device. After you do this, then the app is installed in the user's work profile.
    • There may be known issues when using per-app VPN with F5 Access for Android 3.0.4. See F5's release notes for F5 Access for Android 3.0.4 for more information.
  • Lockdown mode: Enable forces all network traffic to use the VPN tunnel. If a connection to the VPN isn't established, then the device won't have network access.

    When set to Not configured (default), Intune doesn't change or update this setting. By default, the OS might allow traffic to flow through the VPN tunnel or through the mobile network.
