Enroll your macOS device using the Company Portal app

  • Artikkeli

Set up secure, remote access to work emails, files, and apps on your personal Mac. This article describes how to install the Company Portal app, enroll your Mac for work, and get troubleshooting help.

What to expect from the Company Portal app

During initial setup, the Company Portal app requires you to sign in and authenticate with your work account. Company Portal then informs you of any device settings you need to change to meet your organization's requirements. For example, your organization could require you to make your device PIN longer, or require you to update your operating system. After you enroll your device, Company Portal helps you maintain the secure work access. The app notifies you of new policies and requirements and gives you the chance to adjust your settings so that you can continue to work uninterrupted.

During installation and enrollment, you might be prompted to allow Company Portal to use confidential information that's stored in your keychain. These prompts are part of Apple security. When you get the prompt, type in your login keychain password and select Always Allow.
