VPN
Published by Apple, Inc.
Configure Virtual Private Network connections for Apple devices to enable secure remote access to organizational resources. Define VPN protocols (IKEv2, IPSec, L2TP, Cisco AnyConnect), authentication methods, server endpoints, and connection parameters. Deploy this profile to establish encrypted tunnels for remote workers, protect data transmission over untrusted networks, and enforce always-on VPN policies. Supports split-tunnel configurations, on-demand connection rules, and per-app VPN assignments for granular access control.
Configure digital certificates for authentication, encryption, and secure communications across devices and services. Deploy trusted root certificates, intermediate CA certificates, user identity certificates, or device certificates to enable secure network access, VPN connections, email signing and encryption, or application authentication. Manage certificate trust settings, specify allowed uses, and ensure proper certificate chain validation to maintain security standards across your organization.
Configure firewall rules and network security policies for Mac devices to control inbound and outbound network traffic. Define application-specific firewall rules, enable stealth mode to prevent network discovery, block all incoming connections, or allow signed applications automatically. Deploy this profile to enforce consistent network security policies across managed devices, protect endpoints from unauthorized access, and ensure compliance with organizational security requirements. Essential for securing devices in enterprise, education, and remote work environments.
Configure WiFi network settings for Apple and Windows, including SSID, security type, authentication credentials, proxy settings, and auto-join behavior. Deploy WiFi profiles to automatically connect devices to corporate, guest, or secure networks without manual configuration. Control network priority, enable captive portal bypass, and configure certificate-based authentication for enterprise WPA2/WPA3 networks. Essential for ensuring seamless connectivity across managed devices while maintaining security standards and reducing help desk tickets related to network access.
