Signed Apple Profiles

What

With the release of FileWave 15.5, all configuration profiles deployed to Apple devices are now automatically signed. Profile signing enhances security by verifying the authenticity and integrity of the profiles, ensuring they haven’t been altered or tampered with during deployment. Additionally, FileWave allows you to export these signed profiles for use outside of the FileWave environment.
