ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question
Your company issues smartphones and tablets that it owns, yet allows employees to install personal apps for everyday use. Management insists on protecting corporate email and documents, respecting user privacy, and being able to react quickly if a device is lost. Within a Corporate-Owned, Personally-Enabled (COPE) deployment strategy, which action best satisfies these requirements?
Permit employees to opt out of device management and instead rely on a written policy requiring them to report loss or theft within 24 hours.
Enroll every device in an MDM platform that provisions a secured corporate container with mandatory encryption and allows selective remote wipe of only the managed workspace.
Disable all public app stores on the devices and prohibit users from installing any non-corporate applications.
Give users full administrative control of the devices and require them to install a recommended antivirus application at their discretion.
COPE devices remain company property, so the organization can enforce security controls, but they are "personally enabled," so employees may use them for personal tasks. Implementing mobile device management that creates a managed workspace (sometimes called containerization) lets security teams push corporate policies-such as encryption and strong authentication-only to corporate apps and data. A selective wipe can remove that workspace if the device is lost without touching personal photos, messages, or applications, balancing business protection with employee privacy. Simply forbidding personal apps, relying on policy alone, or giving users full admin rights without oversight either undermines usability or fails to provide enforceable security and incident-response capabilities.
