Information

The macOS system must disable iCloud Bookmarks.

GROUP ID: V-259503RULE ID: SV-259503r958478

The macOS built-in Safari.app bookmark synchronization via the iCloud service must be disabled.

Apple's iCloud service does not provide an organization with enough control over the storage and access of data and, therefore, automated bookmark synchronization must be controlled by an organization approved service.

Solution

Configure the macOS system to disable iCloud Bookmarks by installing the "com.apple.applicationaccess" configuration profile.
