What is DEP (Device Enrollment Program) in the context of Casper/Jamf?
Answer: An Apple program that automates device enrollment and initial configuration in Casper during setup
DEP (now Apple Business Manager) automates the enrollment of Apple devices into Casper/Jamf during initial device setup, enabling zero-touch deployment.
How does MDM (Mobile Device Management) enforce security on enrolled devices?
Answer: Through configuration profiles that enforce passcode policies, encryption, and access restrictions
MDM enforces security through configuration profiles that set requirements for passcodes, encryption, app restrictions, and other security controls.
What is a configuration profile in Casper MDM?
Answer: An XML payload that defines device settings, restrictions, and configurations applied to managed devices
Configuration profiles are XML-based payloads that contain settings for Wi-Fi, email, VPN, restrictions, and other configurations pushed to managed devices.
What happens when a device is remotely wiped through Casper?
Answer: All data and settings are erased, returning the device to factory defaults
A remote wipe erases all data, settings, and user content from the device, returning it to factory defaults, typically used for lost or stolen devices.
What is the difference between managed and unmanaged apps in Casper?
Answer: Managed apps can be remotely installed, updated, configured, and removed by IT; unmanaged apps cannot
Managed apps are under IT control through Casper — they can be remotely deployed, configured, updated, and removed, while unmanaged apps are user-installed and outside IT control.
How does VPP (Volume Purchase Program) integration work with Casper?
Answer: It enables organizations to purchase and distribute App Store apps to managed devices through Casper
VPP (now part of Apple Business Manager) allows organizations to purchase app licenses in volume and distribute them to devices through Casper without requiring Apple IDs.
