How to protect iOS devices from being restored to factory defaults?

Question

Hi, 
 With android devices I can protect the device from being restored to default settings (factory reset). 
 I could not find this setting for iOS devices. 
 How do I restrict access to factory reset? 
 If the user restores the device to factory defaults, will SMC be wiped?

Hello There, 
 Thank you for reaching us, You can't turn off/disable the factory reset option on an iOS device since its operating system doesn't provide a setting to do that, unlike Android Enterprise. However, if the device is a DEP device, it&rsquo;ll ask the user to re-enroll the device with the MDM server after the reset. And Yes SMC will be wiped out after performing a reset.
