MEET APPLE’S NEWPRIVACY REVOLUTION
It's called User Enrollment. It was designed by Apple to protect user-owned
device privacy while also providing IT with the tools they need to keep your
data safe with a limited set of configurations and policies associated with the
user instead of the entire device. What does this mean for you and why is it
important? Scroll down to find out more.
WHAT IS USER ENROLLMENT?NO MORE TOUGH SPOTS FOR THE INCREASING BYOD USAGE
iOS 13, iPadOS, and macOS Catalina will have a profound impact on schools and
companies. Previously, there have been many concerns about transparency and data
privacy when it comes to students or employees bringing their own devices to
school or work.
But not anymore, because Apple's brand-new lightweight form of management called
User Enrollment will enhance Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) programs by making it
easier for IT professionals, support, technicians, and administrators to protect
user privacy.
This will allow users to access their personal and work/school data without the
possibility of their personal data being erased, modified, or even viewed by the
IT administrator.
WHY USE IT?THE PERFECT BLEND OF INTERESTS BETWEEN IT AND USERS
In every company or school, people bring their own devices, but they don’t want
IT administrators to manage their entire device. At the same time, the IT staff
feels uncomfortable to having to deal with users' personal information. That's
about to change. The new User Enrollment option is meant to better balance the
needs of IT to protect sensitive data and manage the software and settings
available to users.
At the same time, users’ private personal data remains separate from IT
oversight. This is a game-changer, because users can feel extremely secure when
partaking in corporate Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) programs because of the
transparency and trustworthiness of the limited access IT has. For schools and
companies, it means that they can then adopt BYOD with peace of mind and in an
easier way than ever before.
HOW TO USE IT?THE MOST SECURE AND STRAIGHTFORWARD SET UP PROCESS
For end-users, the enrollment process with the MDM has been simplified. They
simply need to go the Settings app to start the enrollment after the enrollment
profile has been downloaded. Once there, they will need to authenticate using
their Managed Apple ID. An additional encrypted volume associated with the
Managed Apple ID will be created automatically on the device.
This is where all the enterprise apps and data for the device will be stored,
separating it completely from the users’ personal data. The MDM service will
never have access to this personal volume, in fact, it doesn't even know it's
there. This means that only the company or school’s managed apps and accounts
have access to the benefits of the Managed Apple ID.
WHAT’S THE ROLE OF THE MDM SOLUTION?OPERATING THE NEW PRIVACY-FOCUSED PROCESS
Personal data plays a huge part in society. Increasingly, people seek greater
control and clarity about how their personal data is used and protected by the
organizations they interact with. And with Apple’s privacy-focused releases, MDM
is becoming as indispensable as ever. In a nutshell, MDM will gain user
permission to operate in a confined space on user devices, thus having a
restricted and transparent range of management operations, but at the same time
ensuring that company and/or school information is always kept safe.
In addition, MDM will ensure that you have the best experience with your Apple
device, installing, for example, the applications and software your institution
wants to install for you. MDM will only access the work and/or school
information, while your personal information remains encrypted and inaccessible
by the MDM software. Briefly, the MDM does not even have access to your personal
information. Most important: once the device is removed from MDM, all data and
information that was managed by the institution is automatically deleted.

COMPANY IT
BYOD is here to stay – especially as new tech-savvy generations enter workplaces
and workspaces. People are bringing their own iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices into
their places of work for professional activities. While this is appreciated by
most, you, from the Corporate IT team, know that this can be a major security
concern. You are then asked to develop robust security solutions and identify
ways to control the usage of personal devices.
Well, good news for you: managing those Apple devices will be easier from now
on. Way easier. Apple just introduced a new lightweight form of management
called User Enrollment, which has a much greater focus on user privacy,
implemented with a level of security that enterprises can be more comfortable
with.
The main goal of this new option is to balance the needs of IT to protect
sensitive corporate data and manage apps and settings available to users, while
at the same time allowing users’ private personal data to remain separate from
IT oversight.
HOW DOES USER ENROLLMENT WORK?
Basically, the new User Enrollment option has three elements that we will cover
in-depth individually:
1. A Managed Apple ID that works alongside employees’ personal Apple IDs;
2. Cryptographic managed volume to separate personal and work data;
3. Limited set of device-wide management capabilities for IT.
1) MANAGED APPLE IDS
The first element of User Enrollment is the Managed Apple ID, which, briefly, is
a special company-created and company-owned account that provides access to
Apple services – associated with all enterprise apps and data on the device and
in the iCloud Drive. You can create an Apple ID using Apple Business Manager or
Apple School Manager, which can federate with Microsoft Azure Active Directory
to create a Managed Apple ID.
For User Enrollment, Managed Apple IDs will have a key function: establishing a
work identity on the device, in which the user must successfully authenticate in
order for enrollment to be completed. From this moment forward, the company’s
managed apps and accounts will use the Managed Apple IDs iCloud account that the
employee just logged into.
At the same time, their personal Apple ID will work alongside the managed Apple
ID, but the two won’t interact with each other. This separation will be
presented next. This means that third-party apps are then either used in managed
or unmanaged modes, meaning that users won’t be able to run the apps in both
modes at the same time. For those built-in apps like Notes and Files, they will
work through account based, so the app will use the appropriate Apple ID
depending on which account they’re operating on at the time.
We highly recommend that you check what Managed Apple IDs are, what their use
is, and how to create them at Apple Business Manager User Guide:
https://support.apple.com/guide/apple-business-manager/what-are-managed-apple-ids-tes78b477c81/web
2) DATA SEPARATION VOLUME
To separate work data from personal data, User Enrollment creates a separate
APFS volume for managed accounts, apps, and data on the device at the time of
the enrollment. In a few words, APFS, or Apple File System, allows space to be
shared between volumes on a disk. As we have discussed before, to ensure the
highest level of privacy and to address any security concerns, this managed
volume is cryptographically separated from the rest of the device and not backed
up.
The managed volume will host the local data stored by any managed third party
apps, enterprise Notes, and iCloud Drive docs. Also, it will host a managed
keychain that stores secure entries along with authentication credentials for
managed accounts and mail attachments and full email bodies. Best of all: when
the device is removed from MDM, it automatically destroys the volume and the
keys.
This is a game-changer for any company that is using Apple devices, and it will
provide the most straightforward, trustworthy experience for both IT and end
users. Personal apps and data can’t be managed by IT admins, so users can always
be sure that no personal information will ever be read or erased.
3) USER ENROLLMENT MANAGEMENT CAPABILITIES
So what control does IT have over information? Well, Apple hit the nail on the
head with this one. User Enrollment, working alongside with the MDM, will give
IT the ability to manage a limited set of configurations and policies associated
with the user instead of the entire device. For that, Apple restricted the MDM
to have any access to any identifier for the device. Instead, an “enrollment ID”
is created and used to communicate with the MDM server and is destroyed when the
device is removed from the management solution.
In other words, the user will have access to both personal and work data with
absolutely no chances that their personal data will be erased, modified, or even
viewed by the IT admin.
Here’s a list of what User Enrollment can do:
* Configure accounts
* Configure Per-app VPN
* Install and configure apps
* Require a passcode
* Enforce certain restrictions
* Issue an MDM command or query gathering information about apps, accounts, and
configuration provided by the MDM solution
* Unenroll the device and cause all organizationally provided data, apps, and
accounts
What User Enrollment cannot do:
* Obtain any persistent device identities (like Serial Number, UDID, or IMEI);
instead it uses a unique value to identify the device for the duration of the
enrollment
* Require complex alphanumeric passcodes
* Clear the device passcode or lower the security of the device
* Enforce certain restrictions
* Take over management of an app that a user installed themself
* Issue an MDM command or query gathering information about apps downloaded
with the user’s personal Apple ID
* Remotely wipe the entire device
* Access any cellular features
* Add payloads that collect logs on the device
* Add any supervised restrictions to the user’s device
User Enrollment is revolutionizing the way technology is used in the workspace.
BYOD makes employees happier and more satisfied because they can use a device
they’re already familiar with, while knowing that IT is keeping corporate data
safe. If your company is interested in using User Enrollment and enhancing the
BYOD program with your employees, the first step is to set up an MDM account and
talk to one of our specialists to ensure the most successful deployment. You can

EMPLOYEE
You were told by your company that you can bring your personal Apple device to
the workplace and use them with the company’s application. However, they have
asked you to accept an “MDM Policy” so they can manage applications and remotely
install configuration settings on your device. That certainly sounds like a
breach of your privacy, no? Well, Apple just solved this issue by blocking any
potential invasion of privacy at the lowest level than ever imagined before. The
new User Enrollment will make you trust your company’s MDM Policy with your eyes
closed.
But first, what’s an MDM? MDM stands for Mobile Device Management, and it allows
IT administrators to control, secure, and enforce policies on Apple devices. The
goal of MDM is to optimize the functionality and security of mobile devices
while simultaneously protecting the corporate information. To be fair, MDM had a
bunch of configurations that many users weren’t comfortable with, such as
listing all the apps installed on the device or erasing it completely. As a
result, many users weren’t comfortable enrolling their personal devices into an
MDM solution.
But Apple just changed the rules of the game for the better. Apple just released
User Enrollment, which provides IT admins with a limited set of configurations
and policies for device management. This means that you can have the most
private and trustworthy BYOD experience knowing that no one will ever have
access to any of your personal information. Instead of managing your entire
device, the IT department will provide you with a unique Managed Apple ID that
will work alongside your own Apple ID and it will separate work and personal
data on your device – it’s as simple as that.
Managed Apple ID works just like your personal Apple ID, but they’re created and
managed by your organization. It will provide you access to all Apple services,
and create a separate data storage for the applications used by the company. All
your personal data and applications that were installed before you sign into
your Managed Apple ID will remain as it is and will be completely invisible and
encrypted to your IT department.
After signing in with your Managed Apple ID, the enrollment process begins, in
which your Managed Apple ID is linked with the MDM solution. At this point, IT
will have some limited functionalities to manage some settings and applications
on your device. But here’s what they will not be able to do in User Enrollment
mode:
* They cannot obtain any persistent device identities (like Serial Number,
UDID, or IMEI)
* They cannot require complex alphanumeric passcodes
* They cannot clear the device passcode or lower the security of your device
* They cannot take over management of an app you have installed yourself
* They cannot gather information about apps downloaded with your user’s
personal Apple ID
* They cannot remotely wipe your entire device
* They cannot access any cellular features
* They cannot collect logs on the device
But you might be asking what information the MDM can have, right? Well, none.
The MDM will not have access to any personal information instead of a generic ID
that was generated when you signed in with your Managed Apple ID. The MDM is
restricted from accessing:
* Personal or work mail, calendars, contacts
* SMS or iMessages
* Safari browser history
* FaceTime or phone call logs
* Personal reminders and notes
* Frequency of app use
* Device location
Apple’s new User Enrollment and MDM policies are a step toward a better balance
of important concerns – it ensures that you have the highest level of privacy
and the most trustworthy, transparent process while IT manages only the
corporate data and applications. Apple made this possible, and in doing so,
moved BYOD past the flash-in-the-pan stage. BYOD is here to stay more than ever
before.

SCHOOL IT
BYOD is here to stay – and it’s here to stay in K-12 schools/districts with the
same rigorous security and privacy features as school-owned devices. Kids and
teenagers are bringing their own iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices into the
classroom every day, which can bring different challenges to your educational
institution - especially when it comes to providing the most valuable and safe
learning experiences when using these digital devices.
As an IT specialist, you’re tasked with developing robust security technology
solutions, identifying ways to protect user data, and ensuring that
students/teachers are using personal devices in the classroom in the safest way.

STUDENTS
You just found out that your school is starting a new program that allows you to
bring in your own Apple devices. This is exciting because it means you can use a
device in the classroom that you’re already comfortable using. But you might be
worried about bringing in a personal device- what about your personal
information? What does this mean for you? Don’t worry, Apple is making sure that
your sensitive information can’t be viewed by anyone else with the new User
Enrollment.
When you bring in your Apple device to use in the classroom, you’ll be asked to

You just learned that your school allows you to bring in your own Apple device
to use in the classroom. This helps you create a digital environment that
encourages student engagement when it comes to learning. However, you’re aware
of the security implications related to bringing in your own device, and are
asked to sign an MDM policy before you can start using your device at work. Will
your personal information be kept safe? Who even has access to your data? Fear
not, because Apple is here to ensure that there isn’t a breach of your privacy

You were told that the school your child attends has a program that allows them
to bring in their own Apple devices to use in class. This sounds great because
the purpose of this is to enhance their education. But it also means that your
child is bringing in a device from home that could have sensitive information on
it. How can you know that this information, and your child, are kept safe? Well,
that’s where Apple’s new User Enrollment comes in. This new feature means that
