Check Content

Review configuration settings to confirm it is disabled. Exception - Siri is allowed to meet Section 508 compliance requirements.

This check procedure is performed on both the device management tool and the Vision Pro device.

Note: If an organization has multiple configuration profiles, the check procedure must be performed on the relevant configuration profiles applicable to the scope of the review. 

In the Vision Pro management tool, verify "Allow Siri" is unchecked.

On the Vision Pro device:
1. Open the Settings app.
2. Tap "General".
3. Tap "VPN & Device Management". 
4. Tap the configuration profile from the Vision Pro management tool containing the restrictions policy.
5. Tap "Restrictions".
6. Verify "Siri not allowed" is listed.

If "Allow Siri" is not disabled in the management tool and on the Apple device, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Install a configuration profile to disable "Allow Siri", unless required to meet Section 508 compliance requirements.
