Android device password not applying in Kiosk mode
This is by design in Android Enterprise - Dedicated Devices (Kiosk) mode. You can configure the PIN/password via compliance or configuration policy but it doesn't get enforced as there is no Company Portal on the device in this scenario. The solution is to include in your documentation and processes that the owner/technician sets up a PIN after device is setup.

Shuchi Mehta How does one set up PIN on device after device setup? (kiosk)
Eaglebeek76 In my use case, I have the policy configured to Exit Kiosk Mode with a PIN. So, once you exit Kiosk Mode (by pressing back button on screen multiple times) you can get to the settings app on device and then Set the screen lock as PIN.
Shuchi Mehta Before I try this, how does one reenter kiosk mode?
Eaglebeek76 you would swipe up (or go to apps) and search for Managed Home screen app. Once you click on that it takes you back to the Kiosk Mode/screen.
