A Manual Procedure

Configure the Apple iOS configuration profile to disable copy/paste of data from managed to unmanaged applications.

The procedure for implementing this control will vary depending on the MDM/EMM used by the mobile service provider.

In the MDM console, set "Require managed pasteboard" to "True".

Note: This requirement is the same as AIOS-16-714600 in the Apple iOS/iPadOS 16 BYOAD STIG.
