A Manual Procedure
Configure Samsung Android to disallow outgoing beam.
This requirement is inherently met for COPE as outgoing beam in a "Profile/Workspace" cannot be initiated.
This guidance is applicable to COBO only.
On the MDM console, in the Work Environment restrictions section, set "outgoing beam" to "disallow".
