Fix Recommendation

Configure the Google Android device to disable Wi-Fi Aware for all Work Profile apps.

On the EMM console:

For each Work Profile app, configure the NEARBY_WIFI_DEVICE permission to "deny" to block the use of Wi-Fi Aware if the app supports this feature. If the app does not support Wi-Fi Aware, a NEARBY_WIFI_DEVICE permission may not be available.

Check Contents

Review device configuration settings to confirm Wi-Fi Aware is disabled for each work profile app.

This procedure is performed on the EMM console.

For each Work Profile app, verify the app is configured to deny the NEARBY_WIFI_DEVICE permission. Note: Not all apps will support Wi-Fi Aware and have the NEARBY_WIFI_DEVICE permission.

If on the EMM console the NEARBY_WIFI_DEVICE permission is not set to "deny" for all Work Profile apps that support Wi-Fi Aware, this is a finding.
