Hi LFagni 

 

Welcome to the community, I hope that you are doing well? 


From my understanding I do not believe there is a way to force the creation of a PIN during the enrollment phase for user-associated devices. I will look into this further for you but just wanted to set expectations. 

 

Thanks,

Reece.

Hi ReeceK , all good here, hope the same on your side.
During the enrollment of standard Corporate Device with Work Profile we're asked to protect the device, just after the device registration.

 

and this is fully fine, same happen on Personally Owned Devices with Work Profile and also on Device Administrators (I'm anyhow working for remove them).

Device administrators are not in GZT so I suppose that the PIN request is part of the standard setup of the device, so I do not understand why it's not requested for dedicated devices.

I created a compliance policy too, that require the presence of a PIN protection, but those devices are marked as non-compliant with no real useful indication about the reason for the users, and PIN need to be created manually for make the devices compliant.

    Hey LFagni 

     

    Thanks for reaching out and for the insights you provided. I'll do some research and let you know what I find. I'll also pass on this information to my colleagues to see if they have any input.

     

    Your explanation has been really helpful, and I appreciate it. I dont think I have come across this one before. 

     

    Thanks again!

    Reece

      Hi ReeceK , do you have any update on this topic?
      I wonder how this is failing for the Dedicated Device profile only.

      Thanks

        Isn't the compliance police exactly doing that?
        If a pin is not set the device is highlighted as uncomliant until a pin is set.

         

        On dedicated devices (i think you mean COBO?) you can set the pin via the MDM while on a COPE or BYOD you can force a security password policy which the user has to fulfill in complexitiy and so on. And both take part only after they have been enrolled to the MDM as the settings are rolled out only then.
