Information

The macOS system must disable iCloud Document synchronization.

GROUP ID: V-259502RULE ID: SV-259502r958478

The macOS built-in iCloud document synchronization service must be disabled to prevent organizational data from being synchronized to personal or nonapproved storage.

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

Solution

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