Learn what to consider if your cloud devices need Mobile Device Management (MDM) or a password, passcode, or pin, for example because upper management or your security policy demands it. If MDM is required, Perfecto devices can work with MDM. The MDM configurations would be done by someone supporting the MDM policies on the customer side.
Following are a few caveats to consider when working with an MDM.
-
Android devices using an MDM:
The MDM must not disable or restrict the following services:
-
ADB Debugging
-
The function to allow installation of unknown applications - (this is an android security setting)
-
Data transfer over USB
-
Video transfer over USB
-
Stay Awake
In addition, do not enable the Scan apps with Play Protect setting.
For proper connection and support, your MDM team must make sure that all settings are configured as detailed in Hybrid clouds | Set up and connect Android devices.

-
iOS devices using an MDM:
The MDM must not disable or restrict the following services:
-
Any of the Perfecto iOS clients on the device
-
Data transfer over USB
-
Video transfer over USB
-
Installation of applications to the device
-
Never Lock
In addition, devices should not require a passcode lock of less than 15 minutes.

-
- General configuration. The MDM must not force the following:
- Immediate passcode lock. If required, set the lock to no less than 15 minutes.
As long as the MDM follows these requirements on the devices, using an MDM should not be a problem. Note that the use of passwords, passcodes, or a PIN also fall under the same regulations.
