Remove Hexnode from personal iPad

I recently disenrolled my personal iPad from Hexnode. The management profile is gone from Settings, but the Hexnode app and corporate apps are still on the device. When I try to uninstall them, I get an “Uninstall not allowed” error. How can I remove these apps?

Efficient Policy Management

Hey everyone, I’ve run into a bit of a manual labor nightmare. I’ve been assigning policies to our devices one by one, but now I need to disassociate them in bulk.

Are we relying too much on full device wipes?

Hey everyone, I was doing some late-night reading on incident response frameworks and stumbled across this documentation on building a Data Neutralization Strategy. It got me thinking, are we all just relying way too heavily on the basic remote wipe command when a device goes missing? I manage a fleet of about 400 devices (a messy…

Can we automate screenshots or log web history for compliance?

Hey everyone, We are tightening up our compliance protocols for our remote team. I’ve been asked if we can configure a policy to take random screenshots of the device screen throughout the day to ensure users are on task. Also, is there a report available that lists every specific website URL visited on the device?…
