Fix Recommendation

Configure the Google Android 14 device application allowlist to exclude applications with the following characteristics:

- Back up MD data to non-DOD cloud servers (including user and application access to cloud backup services);
- Transmit MD diagnostic data to non-DOD servers;
- Voice assistant application if available when MD is locked;
- Voice dialing application if available when MD is locked;
- Allows synchronization of data or applications between devices associated with user;
- Payment processing;
- Allows unencrypted (or encrypted but not FIPS 140-3 validated) data sharing with other MDs, display screens (screen mirroring), or printers; and
- Apps which backup their own data to a remote system.

On the EMM Console:

1. Go to the Android app catalog for managed Google Play.
2. Before selecting an app, review the app details and privacy policy to ensure the app does not include prohibited characteristics.

Review managed Google Android 14 device configuration settings to determine if the mobile device has an application allowlist configured and that the application allowlist does not include applications with the following characteristics:

- Back up MD data to non-DOD cloud servers (including user and application access to cloud backup services);
- Transmit MD diagnostic data to non-DOD servers;
- Voice assistant application if available when MD is locked;
- Voice dialing application if available when MD is locked;
- Allows synchronization of data or applications between devices associated with user;
- Payment processing;
- Allows unencrypted (or encrypted but not FIPS 140-3 validated) data sharing with other MDs, display screens (screen mirroring), or printers; and
- Apps which backup their own data to a remote system.

This validation procedure is performed only on the EMM Administration Console.

On the EMM console:

1. Review the list of selected Managed Google Play apps.
2. Review the details and privacy policy of each selected app to ensure the app does not include prohibited characteristics.

If the EMM console device policy includes applications with unauthorized characteristics, this is a finding.
