Free Practice Questions for Apple DEP-2025 Exam

Only managed data is backed up with a Managed Apple ID. TheiOS Deployment Referencestates, "Under User Enrollment, an iCloud backup using a Managed Apple ID includes only data from managed apps, keeping personal data separate."

User Enrollment is designed for Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) scenarios, separating personal and managed data on the device. It uses a Managed Apple ID to apply organizational policies (e.g., managed apps) while leaving personal data (e.g., photos, personal apps) untouched, leveraging a cryptographic separation. Automated Device Enrollment (option A) is for organization-owned devices with full control, not BYOD. Device Enrollment (option B) applies to organization-owned or manually enrolled devices without inherent data separation. TheApple Platform Deployment Guidedetails User Enrollment’s privacy-focused approach for BYOD.

Find My requires an Apple ID (personal or Managed) to enable device tracking, remote locking, or wiping via iCloud. It’s a user-initiated feature activated in device settings, not dependent on organizational tools. An MDM solution (option A) can manage Find My settings but isn’t required to use it. Supervision (option C) enhances management but isn’t necessary for Find My. A VPN configuration (option D) is unrelated. TheApple Platform Security Guidespecifies an Apple ID as the prerequisite for Find My.

Content caching on a Mac improves network performance by storing frequently accessed content (e.g., app updates, iCloud data) locally, reducing internet bandwidth usage and speeding up downloads for connected devices. It doesn’t enhance security (option A), separate data (option C, a User Enrollment feature), or simplify enrollment (option D, an ADE benefit). TheApple Platform Deployment Guideemphasizes bandwidth optimization as the primary benefit of content caching.

Lost Mode is an MDM feature that allows administrators to lock a supervised device remotely, display a custom message, and track its location (if enabled). It requires an MDM solution to issue the command via APNs, and the device must be supervised. Find My (option B) enables user-initiated Lost Mode but isn’t required for MDM’s version. iCloud (option C) isn’t a prerequisite, though it’s often enabled. A passcode (option D) enhances security but isn’t required to activate Lost Mode. TheMDM Protocol Referenceconfirms MDM’s role in Lost Mode for supervised devices.

Bonjour enables service discovery on a LAN. ThemacOS Deployment Referencestates, "Bonjour supports discovering services such as printers, file shares, and other resources on a local network." Options A, B, and D are unrelated to Bonjour’s function.

MDM server assignment is required for enrollment. TheApple Business Manager User Guidestates, "For devices to automatically enroll in MDM via Apple Business Manager, they must be assigned to an MDM server. Without this assignment, enrollment will not occur during setup." Option C explains why iPhones fail to enroll while Macs succeed. Options A, B, and D are incorrect as new devices don’t need resets, approval is automatic for Apple purchases, and 5G doesn’t block enrollment.

Preserving eSIM speeds redeployment. TheMobile Device Management Protocol Referencestates, "When erasing a supervised iPad, the preserveDataPlan option retains the existing eSIM, avoiding reactivation delays."

Auto Advance skips Setup Assistant. ThemacOS Deployment Referencestates, "Auto Advance automatically skips all Setup Assistant panes on a Mac connected to Ethernet, streamlining deployment." Options B, C, and D are not standard MDM features.
