You use MDM to convert unmanaged apps to managed. Then you deploy an app to a supervised device that already has the app installed as unmanaged. What happens?
Answer : A
On supervised devices, conversion is seamless. The Mobile Device Management Protocol Reference states, 'On supervised devices, MDM can convert an unmanaged app to managed without user interaction when deploying the managed version.'

What can be used to report state changes without requiring MDM device polling?
Answer : C
Declarative Device Management (DDM) reports changes proactively. The Mobile Device Management Protocol Reference states, 'Declarative Device Management enables devices to report state changes to MDM without polling, improving efficiency.'

Which type of enrollment is ideal for devices you need to distribute to multiple users in multiple regions?
Answer : C
Automated Device Enrollment (ADE) is ideal for distributing devices to multiple users across multiple regions because it allows enrollment in an MDM solution without physically handling the devices. Devices are pre-registered in Apple Business Manager or Apple School Manager, and upon setup, they automatically enroll in MDM, streamlining deployment at scale. Device Enrollment (option A) requires manual profile installation, impractical for large, dispersed deployments. User Enrollment (option B) is suited for BYOD, not organization-owned devices distributed widely. The Apple Platform Deployment Guide recommends ADE for such scenarios.
What's the benefit of using configuration profiles?
Answer : A
Configuration profiles enhance device security by allowing IT administrators to enforce policies such as passcode requirements, app restrictions, and encryption settings. Deployed via MDM or manually, they ensure devices meet organizational security standards. Network performance (option B) is improved by content caching, not profiles. Data separation (option C) is a User Enrollment feature. Simplified enrollment (option D) aligns with ADE. The Apple Platform Deployment Guide emphasizes security as a primary benefit of configuration profiles.
Which declarative device management declarations can an MDM server use to store values on a device?
Answer : A
Activations store values. The Mobile Device Management Protocol Reference states, 'Declarative Device Management uses Activations declarations to store values on a device, enabling proactive state management.'

What must be installed on a device so you can manage it with MDM?
Answer : C
An enrollment profile establishes MDM control. The Mobile Device Management Protocol Reference states, 'An enrollment profile must be installed on a device to establish a connection with the MDM solution, enabling management.' Options A, B, and D are unrelated to basic MDM enrollment.

Which apps are published through the App Store but are discoverable only with a direct link?
Answer : C
Unlisted apps require a link. The Apple Business Manager User Guide states, 'Unlisted apps are published to the App Store but are discoverable only via a direct link, often for private distribution.'
