iOS Company Portal Security

Scenario: Colleague have installed the Company Portal and enrolled their personal device.  They then install an application through the Company Portal.  Any application that does not have the Intune SDK integrated.  It is understood that Application Protection will not be applied to the application without the SDK integration.

 

Question(s):

What is the level of security protection on this application? 

Would the data stored from the application be secured?

If the iOS restriction policy deemed that the transfer of information from the application to another unmanaged application be limited, would that be enforced?

    No security protection would be applied to the application (MDM restrictions would apply across the device), you would be relying on conditional access to enforce a level of control at the application sign-in/authentication level to ensure the device is compliant etc. (if in place and if the app uses SSO).

    Data stored from the application would technically be unsecure as there's no security controls applied. You could request management of the app, which would allow Intune to block Icloud backup, removal during unenrollment etc. 

    Managed applications would NOT be able to transfer data to the unmanaged application (unless MAM is updated with an exception for said app). In this case, your app would be considered unmanaged and would not have the restrictions applied - allowing the application to export is data to the device, over bluetooth etc.
