Detecting jailbreaks

Wrapped apps can detect iOS devices that are jailbroken.

About this task

    You can also modify an existing policy.
  2. Go to the Security section of the policy.
  3. In the policy, enable Restrict Jailbroken/Rooted Devices.
  4. Configure the rest of the policy as needed.
  5. Make sure that the designated devices are assigned to the policy.
