COBO: Link Google Enterprise with Securepoint Mobile Security

In order to be able to use Google Enterprise for companies and administer it via Securepoint Mobile Security, a link must be established between the Mobile Security account and a Google account for EMM. It is important to note that there is only one Google Enterprise account for all devices of a tenant (customer with own mobile security account). Without EMM, every device has its own Google account.	Settings for Apple and Android
notempty A Google Account may only be associated with one tenant at a time ! ‍ Otherwise, all devices assigned to a tenant – and thus to a Google Account – will appear in all other tenants linked to the same Google Account!
Associating in the menu Associating in the menu
Mobile Security Settings →  Android Enterprise →  Add/Link
A Google account is enabled as an enterprise account by linking Securepoint Mobile Security as EMM provider
The communication of the Securepoint Mobile Security Portal runs completely via this Google account.
notempty To avoid unwanted side effects, a new account should definitely be created. It is recommended to use a naming scheme here: mdm.$customer_name@gmail.com
Show step-by-step instructions: Link to Google Enterprise Menu  Mobile Security Settings →  Android Enterprise →  Add/Link Add Enterprise account Email address, for linking with Android Enterprise Email addresses with a domain of your own organisation can be used (e.g. mdm@anyideas.de) E-mail addresses from mail providers can be used (e.g. mdm.anyideas@gmail.com) If an e-mail address with a domain of your own organisation is used (e.g. mdm@anyideas.de), this must be confirmed If an e-mail address with a domain of a mail provider is used (e.g. mdm.anyideas@gmail.com), the option Register for Android only must be selected. Forwarding to https://play.google.com/work Company name. The link to Securepoint Mobile Security is already predefined. Data Protection Officer and EU authorized details required The registration with Google can be completed with it. You will be redirected back to the Securepoint Mobile Security Portal. The e-mail address with which the link was created should now be saved to enable later assignment. The setup must be completed with  save. The link is now established. If this message appears when calling https://play.google.com/work, the registration in the Securepoint Mobile Security Portal has not yet been completed and no token linked!

There must be an Android profile that can be assigned to the device.

Further notes on Android profiles

COBO: Android Profile

Under  Mobile Security Android  Profiles you can  Add profile or  Import profile or edit an existing profile (click on profile tile or →  Edit )
Various configurations are made here, e.g:

• Install and configure Apps
• Password policies
• Security settings

• Control of the app store for private applications
• Release of professional address books for private use (e.g. for incoming calls).
• WiFi configurations
• Restrictions
• Password policies
• Security settings

Best Practice: Description the most important configuration options

notempty

In addition to configuring the basic settings, restrictions, networks, etc., the following settings are required in the profile:

COBO: Register device

Fully managed devices (COBO, COSU)

On private devices in which only the work profile is managed by an organisation - and thus by the Securepoint Mobile Security Profile - this app must be installed manually from the Android App Store.
With this app the registration token is scanned or entered via the keyboard and the devices can be registered and configured in the portal.

• Installing the app Android Device Policy from the Google App Store
• Scanning the QR code or entering the registration token via the keyboard
  • A work profile is created on the device for the Enterprise profile.
  • All configured applications, restrictions etc. are created and applied within the work profile.

Fully managed devices (COPE, Company Owned personal enabled) are connected directly to the Android Enterprise profile during initial setup or after a device reset. The link to a Google account and thus to an app store is defined by the assigned profile.

• Initial power-up or device reset (factory settings)
• Selection of regional settings
• Tap the display 7 times quickly to open a QR code scanner
• Scanning the profile QR code (see above)
• The device is configured as a fully managed device.
  • All policies, apss and restrictions stored in the profile will be applied directly to the device
    This process may take a few minutes during the initial installation!

Show step-by-step instructions

Select country setting
7 quick taps on the display opens a QR code scanner
Devices with Android ≤ 9 (Pie) already require a temporary WLAN connection to load a QR code scanner.

Scan QR Code

In order to receive the profile settings, a temporary connection to a WiFi is established. The access data will not be saved!

Indicates that this device is managed by an organization.

Work profile is being prepared
(The whole device, is covered by the work profile!)

The device is set up as an working device.

Privacy Notice

Google services to be allowed (as needed)

Device update. With the update of the Play-Store, important operating system parts also receive an update. This enables Android to provide all devices with security-relevant updates more quickly than would be the case with the adapted device manufacturer versions.

Completion of the device update

Apss configured in the profile will be installed.
This process can take several minutes!

The app "Android Device Policy" was installed, which is needed to manage the device with the profile. It is only shown if you open the App-Store and display the installed Apps. (App-Store menu } → "My Apps for Work" → "Installed")
