Apple visionOS 2 must implement the management setting: disable Allow MailDrop.

Rule version AVOS-02-011000 · STIG v1 · 2026-05-13

Discussion

MailDrop allows users to send large attachments (up to 5 GB) via iCloud. Storing data with a non-DOD cloud provider may leave the data vulnerable to breach. Disabling non-DOD cloud services mitigates this risk.

Check

Review configuration settings to confirm "Allow MailDrop" is disabled.

This validation procedure is performed on both the Apple visionOS management tool and the Vision Pro.

Note: If an organization has multiple configuration profiles, the check procedure must be performed on the relevant configuration profiles applicable to the scope of the review.

In the Apple visionOS management tool, verify "Allow MailDrop" is not checked.

On the Vision Pro: 1. Open the Settings app. 2. Tap "General". 3. Tap "VPN & Device Management". 4. Tap the configuration profile from the Apple visionOS management tool containing the restrictions policy. 5. Tap "Mail". 6. Tap the mail account. 7. Verify "Mail Drop Enabled" is set to "No".

If "Allow MailDrop" is not disabled in the Apple visionOS management tool or the restrictions policy on the Vision Pro lists "Mail Drop Enabled" as "Yes", this is a finding.

Fix

Configure the Apple visionOS configuration profile to disable "Allow MailDrop".
