Information

The macOS system must disable iCloud Game Center.

GROUP ID: V-277131
RULE ID: SV-277131r1148845

This works only with supervised devices (mobile device management [MDM]) and allows users to disable Apple Game Center. The rationale is that Game Center is using Apple ID and will share data on AppleID-based services; therefore, Game Center must be disabled.

This setting also prohibits the functionality of adding friends to Game Center.

Solution

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