Kaspersky Secure Mobility Management

Disconnecting an iOS MDM device from management

If you want to stop managing an iOS MDM device, you can disconnect it from management in Kaspersky Security Center.

As an alternative, you or the device owner can remove the device management profile from the device. However, after that you must still disconnect the device from management, as described in this section. Otherwise, you will not be able to start managing this device again.

To disconnect an iOS MDM device from the iOS MDM Server:

1. In the main window of Kaspersky Security Center Web Console, select Assets (Devices) → Mobile → Devices.

   The list of managed mobile devices opens.

2. To filter iOS MDM devices, click the Operating mode column heading and select the operating mode of the iOS MDM device you want to disconnect.

   The list of iOS MDM devices operating in the selected mode is displayed.

3. Select the mobile device you want to disconnect.
4. Click Delete.

In the list, the iOS MDM device is marked for removal. Within one minute, the device is removed from the database of the iOS MDM Server, after which it is automatically removed from the list of managed devices.

After the iOS MDM device is disconnected from management, all installed configuration profiles, the device management profile, and apps for which the Remove when device management profile is deleted option has been enabled in the iOS MDM Server settings, will be removed from the device. The iOS MDM policy will also be deleted.
