1.4 Ensure 'Automatically Lock' is set to 'Immediately'

Information

Immediately lock the phone as soon as the device goes to sleep.

Rationale:

Automatically and immediately locking the device as soon as it goes to sleep ensure that there is no lag between the device entering the sleep state and the device getting locked. At times, the user just rests the device and moves away from it. The phone eventually enters the sleep state and automatically and immediately locking it ensures that no manual locking of the device is needed. This ensures that the unattended devices are locked immediately as soon as the device enters the sleep state.

Solution

From the MobileIron console, open the Policies & Configs -> Policies view. Under the Security Policy verify that Grace Period for Device Lock is Immediately.
