AIOS-03-080101 - Apple iOS must implement the management setting: use SSL for Exchange ActiveSync.

Information

Exchange email messages are a form of data in transit and thus are vulnerable to eavesdropping and man-in-the-middle attacks. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), also referred to as Transport Layer Security (TLS), provides encryption and authentication services that mitigate the risk of breach.

Solution

Install a configuration profile to use SSL for Exchange ActiveSync.
