In this guide, we are going to learn how to install SkypeShield's dedicated app for MobileIron

MDM integration has 2 types of behaviors:

• Conditional Registration - Limiting registration only to managed devices by the MDM vendor.
• Conditional Access -  Consistent validation that the device is managed and did not become out of compliance.

Regarding Conditional Access SkypeShield can function according to the following approaches:

• WiFi - Registration can only be done from and a WiFi network that requires a certificate in order to connect to. The certificate is managed by the MDM.
• SkypeShield Application -  Registration can be performed only by using a specific SkypeShield (SkS) app, that is only available from the corporate store/catalog to the devices that are managed.

You can implement the app for both Android and iOS devices:

• Android  - deployment is performed using the AirWatch SDK which allows interaction with the Airwatch Agent in order to collect data about the user and device. For example, UDID.
• iOS  - deployment is performed using AppConfig technology.

Prerequisites

Before we begin the installation we need to make sure we have a SkypeShield app package containing:

• SkypeShield_MobileIron.ipa

• AppConfig.txt

All of the package components will be provided to you by AGAT administration team.
