Anti-Phishing for iOS devices

This section covers anti-phishing protection functionality for iOS devices.

How MobileIron Phishing Protection for iOS works

1. In the Admin portal, you create a MTD anti-phishing policy to ensure that device users will be blocked from visiting malicious URLs.
2. A notification is sent to users' devices, stating that the MobileIron Phishing Protection has been enabled and the device user is invited to activate it on the device.

3. Users successfully enable MobileIron Phishing Protection on their devices. Content Blocker is applicable for URLs accessible from the Safari browser.

   NOTE:

   The administrator will be able to tell if the device user enabled the MobileIron Phishing Protection by checking the Device Details page in Core.

4. When the device user taps on a URL, the MobileIron Phishing Protection is triggered. Mobile@Work passes the URL to the Safari browser to display the URL.

   When the browser opens, the device displays a "Page Blocked by Content Blocker" page. This is applicable to whether a device user taps on a URL or if an app attempts to go to the malicious URL.

   NOTE:

   If the MTD Anti-Phishing policy does not exist, does not have a label applied to it, OR is inactive and the device user enables the MobileIron Content Blocker in the user's selected browser, the client will not send any status to the server and will NOT block the malicious sites. While the MTD Anti-Phishing policy is in any of the above three states and the Content Blocker is enabled by the device user, the client will continue to display "Enabled" but will NOT block the sites.
