During a mobile penetration test, you learn that a company allows staff to read corporate email on their personal smartphones (BYOD). However, the security team insists that any files saved from the managed mail app must be prevented from being copied or uploaded into consumer cloud-storage applications that employees also use on the same devices. Which Mobile Device Management (MDM) capability should you verify is enabled to enforce this app-to-app data-separation policy?
Device-level containerization or work-profile isolation for corporate applications
Automatic full device remote wipe upon detecting a policy violation
App protection (mobile application management) policy that restricts data transfer between managed and unmanaged apps
Enforcing a SIM-lock to restrict the handset to approved cellular networks
App protection policies-sometimes called mobile application management (MAM) policies-apply encryption and data-handling rules to specific, managed applications rather than the entire device. By marking the corporate mail client as a managed app and consumer cloud-storage tools as unmanaged, the policy blocks copy-and-paste, "save as," and open-in actions that would move attachments outside approved apps. Device-wide containerization, remote wipe, and SIM locking do not specifically control inter-application data flows or prevent users from saving corporate files to personal cloud apps.
