Work profile

Introduction

The enrollment type Work Profile is the right choice for the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) approach. Users can provide their private devices to have a Work Profile installed on them by the organization. No resetting of the devices is necessary for the commissioning of a work profile. The mail app or other apps of the organization can then be made available within a work profile. Private and organization-related data are strictly separated on the devices. In addition, administrators have no insight into installed apps and no access rights to functions or settings on private devices. When a work profile is deleted, all organization-related data is removed from the devices, whereas all private data is retained.
