15.6.5 SOTI MobiControl Release Notes Build 1018 | August 24, 2023

Release Highlights

Automatic Administrator Permissions for Remote Sessions

We’ve added the ability to grant device administrator permissions automatically to users without administrator rights when initiating remote control of a macOS device as a MobiControl admin. With this simplified process for granting needed permissions, such as those required for Screen Recording, the response time for accomplishing specific remote tasks or repairs is greatly improved.

Domain Name Support for 802.1x Enterprise Wi-Fi on Android

We’ve added a new mandatory field on the web console to specify the domain name when configuring an 802.1x enterprise Wi-Fi profile for Android. This ensures that the Android OS acknowledges the enterprise Wi-Fi configuration as secure and allows network connections on Android 11 and above.

Deprecations

As part of this release, the functionalities of Indoor Location have been removed.
