Discussion

The system application disable list controls user access to/execution of all core and preinstalled applications. Core application: Any application integrated into Google Android 17 by Google. Preinstalled application: Additional noncore applications included in the Google Android 17 build by Google or the wireless carrier. Some system applications can compromise DoW data or upload users' information to non-DoW-approved servers. A user must be blocked from using such applications that exhibit behavior that can result in compromise of DoW data or DoW user information. The site administrator must analyze all preinstalled applications on the device and disable all applications not approved for DoW use by configuring the system application disable list.

Review the managed Google Android 17 work profile configuration settings to confirm the system application disable list is enforced. This setting is enforced by default. Verify that only approved system apps have been placed on the core allow list.
 
This procedure is performed on the EMM administration console. 
 
Review the system app allow list and verify that only approved apps are on the list.

COBO:

1. Open the "Apps management" section.
2. Select "Hide apps".
3. Verify that package names of apps are listed.

COPE:

1. Open the "Apps management" section.
2. Select "Hide apps on parent".

If on the EMM console the system app allow list contains unapproved core apps, this is a finding.
