Check

Review managed Samsung Android 17 device configuration settings to determine if the mobile device has an AI application that processes device data in the cloud, including Google Gemini.

Verify requirement KNOX-17-009100 (disallow modify accounts) has been implemented.

Verify that the Knox Platform for Enterprise (KPE) API "isIntelligenceOnlineProcessingAllowed()" returns false or that the KSP configuration has the restriction "Allow process data only on device" set to true.

If any AI application that processes data in the cloud are included in the MDM console of allowed apps or "Allow process data only on device" is not set to true, this is a finding.

Fix

This validation procedure is performed only on the EMM administration console.

On the EMM console: 1. Review the list of selected Managed Google Play apps. 2. Verify no AI applications that process device data in the cloud, including Google Gemini, are included.

Note: This restriction does not include Galaxy on-device AI. Galaxy on-device AI is a ""built-in" capability of Android 17 and processes device data on the device."

If the EMM console device policy includes AI applications that process device data in the cloud, including Google Gemini, this is a finding.

Disallow modify accounts (refer to requirement KNOX-17-009100).

If "disallow modify accounts" has not been implemented, this is a finding.

Apply the "Disallow Intelligence Online Processing" using the KPE API or KSP. The KPE API is allowIntelligenceOnlineProcessing(false) and the KSP restriction is "Allow process data only on device", which should be set to true.
