KNOX-07-013900 - The Samsung Android 7 with Knox must implement the management setting: Disable Move Files from Container to Personal.

Information

Allowing movement of files between the container and personal side will result in both personal data and sensitive DoD data being placed in the same space. This can potentially result in DoD data being transmitted to unauthorized recipients via personal email accounts or social applications, or transmission of malicious files to DoD accounts. Disabling this feature mitigates this risk.

SFR ID: FMT_SMF_EXT.1.1 #47

NOTE: Nessus has not performed this check. Please review the benchmark to ensure target compliance.

Solution

Configure the Samsung Android 7 with Knox to enforce not allowing move of files from Container to personal.

On the MDM console, disable the "Move Files from Container to Personal" setting in the "Android Knox Container >> Container Application" rule.
