setting a lock password during device setup

Is there any way during the configuration of devices that we can prompt the user to setup a lock password during their provisioning? I would like to be able to do this for both Android and Apple devices. Currently it just tells the user they are not complient until they set it up manually however, i did not know if there was a way to have the user do it during setup.

  • Hi jbeumel,

    during the provisioning of the devices you can provide different settings to the device prompting / forcing the user to configure a passcode.

    For iOS you would have to configure a mobileconfig profile with the iPhone Configuration Utility containing passcode settings. After it was uploaded to the SMC webmanagement this profile then can be deployed to a device . This profile can also be part of a task bundle. Once this profile is on the device, the user is forced to configure a passcode.
    For Android it would be necessary to configure a command bundle having the "androidSetPasswordProtection" configured.
    As for iOS you can make this command bundle a part of a task bundle which then might be deployed during the initial configuration. After the command bundle is deployed the user is forced to configure a passcode.

    Best regards

    Stefan
