APPL-15-005054 - The macOS system must disable the TouchID prompt during Setup Assistant.

Information

The prompt for TouchID during Setup Assistant must be disabled.

macOS prompts new users through enabling TouchID during Setup Assistant; this is not essential and, therefore, must be disabled to prevent the risk of individuals electing to enable TouchID to override organizationwide settings.

Solution

Configure the macOS system to disable the TouchID prompt during Setup Assistant by installing the "com.apple.SetupAssistant.managed" configuration profile.
