Copy-paste issue (COPE)
ah okay, i understand!
Just to be sure: You want to block copy and paste from work to personal, but keep the option to transer files from work to personal?
The goal is to block copy-paste from work to personal profile (text and files), but leave the option to copy-paste from personal to work profile (text and files). In a nutshell, data transfer is possible only one way
I just tested the policies mentioned by Moombas , and it seems to do exactly what you want. When set up like shown in the picture below, i'm unable to copy and paste text or files from work to personal while still being able copy from personal to work.
This can be configured within the KSP plugin, the screenshot is from Knox Manage but it shows the KSP part which works the same for both.
- Set Enable work profile policies to true
- Find RCP policy (premium function, you need the free KPE licenses from your knox tenant)
- Set as shown in above picture.
Thanks for testing. I would say I have the same config:
KSP has no errors on the phone, displays new profile name and all the settings, but I still can launch Chrome in work profile, copy text and paste into any app in the personal profile.
Did you enter a KPE license? You need to generate one and then add it to KSP. Knox Platform for Enterprise licenses | Knox Platform for Enterprise | Samsung Knox Documentation
And, not sure, you might need to enable "Device-wide policies (Selectively applicable to Fully Manage Device (DO) or Work Profile-on company owned devices (WP-C) mode as noted)" as well. I've had some strange issues before when I had this part not enabled.
I've been told that it activates some aspects that are also needed by the work profile policies (someone didn't think this one trough I think 😅)
