Apple visionOS 26 must be configured to disable ad hoc wireless client-to-client connection capability.

Ad hoc wireless client-to-client connections allow mobile devices to communicate with each other directly, circumventing network security policies and making the traffic invisible. This could allow the exposure of sensitive DOD data and increase the risk of downloading and installing malware on the DOD mobile device.

This check procedure is performed on both the device management tool and the Vision Pro device.

In the visionOS management tool, verify "Allow AirDrop" is unchecked.

On the Vision Pro device: 1. Open the Settings app. 2. Tap "General". 3. Tap "VPN & Device Management". 4. Tap the Configuration Profile from the visionOS management tool containing the restrictions policy. 5. Tap "Restrictions". 6. Verify "AirDrop not allowed" is listed.
