Hi Apple Community, We are using Automted Device Enrollment to Enroll macOS Devices and we used to Create AutoAdmin, PrimaryAccount using the Command Account Configuration . As a Part of Primary Account Creation while testing we see that BootStrap Token is Escrowed to MDM, and SecureToken is Created to Primary Account. The Primary Account user will enable FileVault as part of our process. As Tested internally, we seen that SecureToken is escrowed to AutoAdmin only when BootStrapToken is escrowed to MDM By device and AutoAdmin logs in then. That too After FileVault Unlock Since we Sendout the Laptop to users to setup themselves there are no chances of AutoAdmin Login to occur. And it defeats the purpose of having the AutoAdmin Account in emergency situation to login into it from Login Window. Can someone confirm if this behavior is expected and what are the expectation and recommendations from Apple on when to use AutoAdmin Account. Is there any other ways to use AutoAdmin directly from LoginWindow Before To FileVault Disk Unlock

Issue - Falcon application is intermittently not detected using system_profiler command Use case - We are trying to fetch the list of installed applications on macOS using the system_profiler command. While this works for most applications, we are observing inconsistent behavior with the Falcon application — it is sometimes detected as installed and sometimes missing from the results, even though it is present on the system. This inconsistency is causing issues in reliably tracking installed security software. Command used - /usr/sbin/system_profiler SPApplicationsDataType

Hi everyone, I'm running an Apple MDM service and encountering an issue where a number of devices stop receiving MDM push commands within 10 days of profile installation, even though everything appears to be set up correctly. Environment: MDM profile is installed and verified (status: OK, result: SUCCESS) Devices are cellular-enabled with no connectivity issues APNs certificate is valid (thousands of other devices are communicating normally) The command being sent to devices is DeviceInformationCommand No "NotNow" response or any check-in received from the affected devices for over a week Issue: We send DeviceInformationCommand to devices to retrieve device information and update the last communication timestamp. However, a subset of devices simply stop responding to this command within 10 days of profile installation. The last communication date is not being updated, and no response — not even a "NotNow" — is coming back from these devices. Since other devices on the same MDM setup are working fine, I've ruled out APNs certificate expiration and general server-side issues. Questions: Are there any known management points or configuration settings that could cause a device to silently stop receiving DeviceInformationCommand shortly after enrollment? What diagnostic steps would you recommend to identify the root cause on the device or server side? Are there any known bugs or reported issues related to this behavior in recent iOS versions? Is there any way to recover the MDM communication without requiring the user to re-enroll? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Is system_profiler the recommended approach for retrieving installed application data on macOS? If not, what is the preferred and reliable alternative to fetch a consistent and complete list of installed applications?

Requesting com.apple.managed-keychain Entitlement for Enterprise S/MIME Cert Visibility Platform: iOS | Distribution: MDM (Microsoft Intune) | Not App Store We are developing an internal enterprise iOS app (EMS Assist, com.company.supportcompanion) for Company deployed exclusively to Intune-managed devices. Our requirement: Read S/MIME certificates pushed to the device via Intune SCEP profiles to: Confirm cert presence in the MDM-managed keychain Read expiry date (kSecAttrNotValidAfter) to warn users before expiry Distinguish between missing, expired, and valid cert states What we have tried: Standard SecItemCopyMatching query — returns only app-installed certs, not MDM-pushed certs Graph API (deviceConfigurationStates) — confirms profile compliance but does not expose actual cert expiry or keychain presence Our understanding: com.apple.managed-keychain is required for an app to access MDM-managed keychain items on supervised devices, combined with a matching keychain-access-groups entitlement and the cert profile configured as "always available" in MDM. Questions: Is com.apple.managed-keychain the correct entitlement for this use case? Does it apply to SCEP/PKCS-issued certificates specifically, or only other MDM keychain items? Has anyone successfully accessed Intune-pushed S/MIME certs from an iOS app using this entitlement? Any guidance from the community or Apple engineers would be appreciated.
