Gartner: VMware Scores Highest in 3 Use Cases
This blog was updated on May 22,2017, with the latest information about the Device Enrollment Program from Apple. Join the conversation on Twitter using #iOSinBusiness.
What is the Device Enrollment Program from Apple?
The Device Enrollment Program provides a fast, streamlined way to deploy your corporate-owned Mac, iOS or tvOS devices. With a mobile device management (MDM) and unified endpoint management solution like VMware AirWatch, IT can:
- Customize device settings;
- Activate and supervise devices over the air; and
- Enable users to setup their own devices out of the box.
[Related: 27 Questions Answered about AirWatch & the Device Enrollment Program from Apple]
What IT challenges does the Device Enrollment Program help address?
The Device Enrollment Program solves several critical requirements for corporate-owned devices. First, organizations save time and money by eliminating high-touch processes for IT. DEP takes configuration time to zero. Deployment of corporate-owned devices with DEP means zero-touch configuration for IT, eliminates staging and automates device configuration.
Second, onboarding iOS or macOS devices is streamlined for users. Based on the settings IT configured, users are prompted through Setup Assistant (skipping through any unnecessary screens). Users only need to authenticate and don&#rsquo;t need to be tech savvy to get the content, apps and email they need on their smartphones.
Finally, supervising iOS devices over the air is possible with the DEP. With supervision, administrators have more control over the device and can disable features like AirDrop, the App Store and account modification. They can also enable features like password protection. Also, the MDM profile cannot be removed, which eliminates the possibility of un-enrollment to protect data and investments in devices and provides the best user experience possible.
What role does AirWatch play in Apple&#rsquo;s Device Enrollment Program?
To utilize the Device Enrollment Program, MDM capabilities like those part of VMware AirWatch are required. AirWatch integrates with the Device Enrollment Program, enabling organizations to automatically import devices in the console based on order history. Then, administrators can easily configure settings, apply profiles, assign applications and set restrictions that will apply automatically when users unbox devices.

How can I join the Device Enrollment Program from Apple?
First, enroll with Apple and register your organization&#rsquo;s information to create an account and designate your administrators. Next, configure your device settings and Setup Assistant steps in the AirWatch console. You then can ship devices directly to your users.
For more information, check out Apple&#rsquo;s Device Enrollment Program Guide.
What are the device requirements for the Apple Device Enrollment Program?
The devices must be corporate-owned and purchased directly from Apple or through participating Apple Authorized Resellers.*
*The Device Enrollment Program may not be supported by all Apple Authorized Resellers and carriers.
Where is the Device Enrollment Program available?
The Device Enrollment Program is available in 34 countries: Australia,Austria,Belgium,Brazil,Canada,Czech Republic,Denmark,Finland,France,Germany, Greece,Hong Kong,Hungary,India,Ireland,Italy,Japan,Luxembourg,Mexico,Netherlands, NewZealand,Norway,Poland,Portugal,Singapore,South Africa,Spain,Sweden,Switzerland, Taiwan,Turkey,United Arab Emirates,United Kingdom andUnitedStates.
What’s available for education with the Device Enrollment Program from Apple?
Both Apple and AirWatch give special consideration to unique education use cases. With Apple School Manager (ASM), Apple has delivered a central place for account creation, role definitions and content purchases. To support ASM, AirWatch designed a console section for education to setup mobile deployments and streamline management of teachers, students, classes, apps and more—whether you have a 1:1 or shared device deployment. After importing data from Apple School Manager, use AirWatch to:
- Match devices with students or classes;
- Assign applications (to users or devices); and
- Configure the new Classroom application, allowing teachers to guide learning on iPads.
Students quickly choose the device with their photo displayed once their teacher has started the class.

Azure AD Join with VMware Workspace ONE
Secure, timely support for remote Windows users can be tricky.
Imagine your top remote sales rep breaks her laptop before an onsite meeting with a vital client. Does she have time to wait for IT to grab a new laptop, Domain Join it for secure access to corporate resources and then ship it out? Even if there is time, she&#rsquo;ll worry about her meeting, and you&#rsquo;ll get plenty of requests for updates.
Instead, imagine that your rep simply stops by a nearby store for a new laptop. She self-enrolls into your Azure Active Directory (AD) domain using the Windows 10 Getting Started wizard. Her device is automatically protected with VMware Workspace ONE enterprise mobility management (EMM) policies.
When you combine Azure AD Domain Join with the best-in-class Windows 10 management of Workspace ONE, you can ensure security and control over end-user access to resources—even from devices that never touch your internal corporate network.
Azure AD Join automatically protects Windows 10 with Workspace ONE EMM policies.
Secure Azure AD Join with Workspace ONE
Workspace ONE integrates with Azure AD Join to protect remote Windows 10 machines with enterprise mobility policies powered by VMware AirWatch. When an end user follows the Windows 10 setup wizard to join his or her device to your Azure AD instance, Azure AD can automatically enroll the device into Workspace ONE for management.
If you have devices that won&#rsquo;t consistently contact your corporate network, or if you have temporary users such as students or contractors, offering Azure AD Join to your users gives them the following benefits:
- Easy access to their corporate resources through device enrollment into Workspace ONE;
- Enterprise-class device security through Workspace ONE EMM;
- User settings that follow them as they log into different domain-joined devices;
- Strong but simple authentication with support for biometrics, such as face recognition using Windows Hello for Business and
- Access to the Windows Store for Business using work or school accounts.
You can find full details on the benefits and prerequisites of Azure AD Join on Microsoft&#rsquo;s site.
Users can choose to Azure AD Join their device from the Windows 10 Getting Started Wizard.
Use Cases for Azure AD Join
Azure AD Join makes Windows 10 management easier than traditional AD Domain Join when you&#rsquo;re working with devices that may not connect to your corporate network or with temporary users (for more information, see this article outlining the pros and cons of Azure AD Join). Common use cases include the following:
- Remote device registration: Some organizations ship Windows 10 devices to remote employees. If you set up Azure AD domain join, your users can easily join their devices to your domain as part of the Windows 10 setup wizard.
- Temporary domain membership: If your organization employs temporary workers, such as contractors, or temporary users, such as students, you may choose to domain join them through Azure AD to take advantage of the self-service domain join as part of Windows 10 setup.
Workspace ONE, Azure AD and Office 365
Workspace ONE provides the industry-leading EMM you need to keep your devices and users safe. Learn more about how Workspace ONE protects valuable resources such as Microsoft Office 365, while providing end users with consumer-level ease of use.

VMware AirWatch – NSX Integration
Integrate VMware AirWatch Enterprise Mobility Management with VMware NSX Network Virtualization and Security Platformto extend security policies from the data center to mobile application endpoints. VMware AirWatch – NSX Integration brings speed and simplicity to networking and micro-segmentation capabilities. By creating policies that dynamically follow mobile applications, it eliminates the need to dotime-consuming network provisioning. Keep reading to learn how to integrate NSX with VMware AirWatch.
Next Level Per-App VPN
While per-app VPN addresses some of the security concerns ofdevice-level VPN, it still exposes all the domain’s endpoints and services to an application. In comparison,micro-segmentation takes endpoint management to the next level,restricting application-level access to a specified endpoint on the datacenter.
[Related: VMware AirWatch 101: Per-App VPN]
What is NSX Micro-Segmentation?
NSX micro-segmentation is a logical, bi-directional firewall thatmonitors inbound and outbound access controls for individual endpoints. It uses the NSX virtualization tool, making it a streamlined, cost-effective alternative to a physical firewall.
VMware AirWatch – NSX Integration Health Care Use Case
Considera doctor referencing patient health records from an enterprise health app.In this use case, only the health app, and not any of the device’s other applications, can establish a per-app VPN connection. Then, micro-segmentation dictates a designated endpoint for the health app. In this case, a patient database.
This level of restriction means that the healthcare app cannot access the e-mail server, an inventory database, or other unrelated services.The application’s assigned groups also mean that data access gets filtered on an employee level as well. Nurses, or doctors from a different department using the same health app cannot access the specifieddatabase without permission.
Additional Use Cases
- Enhanced network security and granular controls for mobile workflows
- Accelerated digital workspace and BYOD deployments
- Policy defined network access for mobile apps and users
- Reduced mobile access footprint to data center minimizing attack surface
- Accelerated mobile app delivery, testing and automation
VMware AirWatch–NSX IntegrationSolution Overview
Starting with a sucessfully installed instance of NSX, sync the NSX Security Groups thatrepresent data center endpoints and services in the AirWatch Console. This actionsharesdatacenter logic with VMware AirWatch.Then,configure and installthe VMware Per-App Tunnel. This server establishes the secure connection between mobile applications and the network.Next, configure a Per-App VPN profile todirects managed applications to specified endpoints. Finally, configure applications.
VMware Tunnel Application
Device communication with the VMware Per-App Tunnel server goes through the VMware Tunnel application.Without this application, a per-app VPN connection cannot establish.Therefore, the VMware Tunnel Application is the most important application to configure and deploy.
The other applications you configure depend on the specific scenario and use case, but are generally the apps that end users accesses internal resources from. When configuring these apps, consider using Assignment Groupswithin AirWatch Console to control access on a user level.

Announcing the New Reviewer’s Guide for Cloud-Based VMware Workspace ONE
With significant contributions from Kevin Sheehan, End-User-Computing Architect, End-User-Computing Customer Success Team, VMware
The new Reviewer&#rsquo;s Guide for Cloud-Based VMware Workspace ONE is now available to download. Use this Reviewer&#rsquo;s Guide to learn about VMware Workspace ONE architecture and components, and familiarize yourself with its features using the practical exercises.
Mobility is critical for today&#rsquo;s workforce. Work hours are no longer restricted to the traditional nine-to-five schedule. More organizations support remote and flexible working hours. Users require access to their applications, at any time, from any device. The challenge for IT is how to provide application access to corporate or personal devices and still maintain data security.
Workspace ONE rises to this challenge by combining identity and mobility management to provide simple yet secure access to applications. Workspace ONE consists of VMware Identity Manager, VMware AirWatch Enterprise Mobility Management service, and Workspace ONE mobile applications for Android, iOS, and Windows 10.
Benefits include one-touch single sign-on (SSO), conditional access with device compliance, and the choice to use any device—personal or corporate-owned.
The following diagram details Workspace ONE components and features.
Salesforce1 is a mobile business application used by many organizations. The practical exercises in this guide include a section on integrating VMware Identity Manager and Salesforce1, and configuring SSO for Salesforce1.
Adaptive management is another feature demonstrated in the exercises. Using the Workspace ONE mobile application, users can select the applications they want to install. If an application requires only a basic level of security, users are not required to enroll their device into VMware AirWatch Mobile Device Management. Applications that require a higher level of security are indicated with a lock icon. When the user tries to download an application with a lock icon, the enrollment process is triggered.
The exercises include:
- Installing and configuring AirWatch Cloud Connector
- Configuring SAML integration between VMware Identity Manager and Salesforce
- Integrating VMware AirWatch and VMware Identity Manager
- Configuring VMware Identity Manager access policies
- Creating and assigning a VMware AirWatch device profile
- Enrolling an iOS device in VMware AirWatch
