macOS devices compliant despite different password policy?

Hi everyone, We’ve enforced a passcode policy on our macOS devices with a minimum password length of 12 characters. But I’m seeing a few devices with 8-character passwords still marked as compliant in the portal. Does anyone know how this is possible? Is the system checking all user accounts or only specific ones?

macOS enrollment profile issue

Hi everyone, We’re trying to enroll some macOS devices in our organization using ADE. We have created and assigned the appropriate enrollment profiles, but during setup, the devices fail to install the profile with the error: “Profile installation failed.” Has anyone encountered this before or have any suggestions on how to resolve it?

Block CLI tools installation

Hi community. Is there a way to completely block the installation of CLI tools on my managed macOS devices? Specifically, I want to ensure users cannot trigger installations via Terminal commands like git, gcc, or others that prompt the system to download and install developer tools.

I understand it's meant to help prioritize devices during patch rollout, but I’m a bit fuzzy on how it’s actually used in practice. Can someone explain what exactly…

Policy to limit device assigned per user

Hello, It would be nice to have a policy to limit the number of registered devices for users. For example, I would only like to limit 1 macbook per user. This way the user is not able to register another device until we remove them as owner of their current device.

Disabling Office Macros

My company requires Office Macros are disabled. For Winodws and MacOS, this is not a built in setting in Hexnode policies. I cannot find any Powershell scripts or batch files to run and enable this setting. Can this be built in?

The system is missing support for showing the computer name, hostname, and IP address.We would like it added to the “Device Info” tab. It would also be nice if we could revert a friendly name back to the actual computer name.So that it once again follows the user's changes to the name.

Add Admin user with functionality like Microsoft LAPS

I have been a long-time user of Microsoft LAPS and would like to have similar functionality in Hexnode across different operating systems.
