In this guide, we are going to learn how to install SkypeShield's dedicated app for Maas360

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.
  • VPN Redirection - Registration can only be done from a device that is configured to work with Split Tunnel VPN managed by the MDM.

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.
