macOS Sensor Installation - MDM Configuration Profiles

This document provides details of the Mobile Device Management (MDM) Configuration Profile that can be used to deploy the LimaCharlie agent to your enterprise fleet on macOS (versions 10.15 and newer).

Affected Dialogs

Once the configuration profile is deployed using an approved MDM server, users will not need to provide approval to complete the agent installation. In particular, the following three system approval dialogs will no longer be presented:

System Extension

Network Filter

Full Disk Access

Application Installation

Configuration Profile Details

We have provided a sample configuration profile for reference:



Download LimaCharlie.mobileconfig sample configuration profile

This profile includes the following permissions:

• System Extension
• Full Disk Access
• Network Content Filter

Silent Installation Preference

In addition to the MDM profile, you will also want to place the following preference file in the /Library/Preferences folder on the endpoint prior to installation. With this preference file in place the application will provide for a silent installation.

The required preference file can be downloaded here:
