Fix Recommendation

Configure the Zebra Android 14 device to disable unauthorized application repositories.

On the EMM console:

COBO and COPE:

1. Open "Set user restrictions".
2. Toggle "Disallow install unknown sources" to "ON".
3. Toggle "Disallow installs from unknown sources globally" to "ON".

Check Contents

Review managed Zebra Android 14 device configuration settings to determine if the mobile device has only approved application repositories (DOD-approved commercial app repository, EMM server, and/or mobile application store).

This validation procedure is performed on both the EMM Administration Console and the managed Zebra Android 14 device.

On the EMM console:

COBO and COPE:

1. Open "Set user restrictions".
2. Verify that "Disallow install unknown sources" is toggled to "ON".
3. Verify that "Disallow installs from unknown sources globally" is toggled to "ON".

On the Zebra Android 14 device:

COBO and COPE:

1. Open Settings >> Apps >> Special app access.
2. Open Install unknown apps.
3. Verify the list of apps is blank or, if an app is on the list, "Disabled by admin" is listed under the app name.

If the EMM console device policy is not set to allow connections to only approved application repositories or on the managed Zebra Android 14 device, the device policy is not set to allow connections to only approved application repositories, this is a finding.
