The macOS system must disable the iCloud Freeform services.

The macOS built-in Freeform.app connection to Apple's iCloud service must be disabled.

Enabling any service increases the attack surface for an intruder. By disabling unnecessary services, the attack surface is minimized.

Verify the macOS system is configured to disable iCloud Freeform services with the following command:

/usr/bin/osascript -l JavaScript << EOS $.NSUserDefaults.alloc.initWithSuiteName('com.apple.applicationaccess')\ .objectForKey('allowCloudFreeform').js EOS

If the result is not "false", this is a finding.

Configure the macOS system to disable iCloud Freeform services by installing the "com.apple.applicationaccess" configuration profile.
