Configure Samsung Android Workspace to prevent users from adding personal email accounts to the work email app.
Do one of the following:
- Method #1: Allow users to only add DoD-approved email accounts to the work email app.
- Method #2: Disallow users from adding any email accounts to the work email app and provision the users' email account on their behalf.
****
Method #1: On the MDM console, for the Workspace, in the "Knox account" group, add all DoD-approved email domains to the account addition whitelist.
Refer to the MDM documentation to determine if an account addition blacklist is also required to be configured when enforcing an account addition whitelist.
****
Method #2: On the MDM console, for the Workspace, do the following:
1. In the "Knox account" group, blacklist all email domains in the account addition blacklist.
2. Provision the user's email account for the work email app.
Refer to the MDM documentation to determine how to provision users' work email accounts for the work email app.
Review the Samsung Android Workspace configuration settings to confirm that users are prevented from adding personal email accounts to the work email app.
This procedure is performed on both the MDM Administrator console and the Samsung Android device.
Confirm if Method #1 or Method #2 is used at the Samsung device site and follow the appropriate procedure.
****
Method #1: On the MDM console, for the Workspace, in the "Knox account" group, verify that the account addition whitelist only includes DoD-approved email domains.

****

1. In the "Knox account" group, verify that all email domains are blacklisted in the account addition blacklist.
2. Verify that the user's email account for the work email app has been provisioned.
