Information

The macOS system must disable iCloud Mail.

GROUP ID: V-268490
RULE ID: SV-268490r1034410

The macOS built-in Mail.app connection to Apple's 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 mail synchronization must be controlled by an organization-approved service.

Solution

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