Checklist Summary:

The Microsoft Android 11 Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) provides the technical security policies, requirements, and implementation details for applying security concepts to Microsoft Android devices running Android 11 that process, store, or transmit unclassified data marked as “Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)” or below. The STIG is based on the Protection Profile for Mobile Device Fundamentals (MDFPP) version 3.1 STIG Template. The scope of this STIG covers both the Corporate Owned Personally Enabled (COPE) and Corporate Owned Business Only (COBO)1 use cases. The Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and Choose Your Own Device (CYOD)2 use cases are not in scope for this STIG. This STIG assumes that for the COPE use case, the technology used for data separation between work apps, data and personal apps, and data that has been certified by the National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) is compliant with the data separation requirements of the MDFPP3. As of the publication date of this STIG, the only data separation technology or application that is NIAP-certified for a Microsoft Android 11 device is the native Android Enterprise personal profile/work profile technology. This STIG leverages the Google Android 11 STIG. All requirements in this STIG are based on the Google Android 11 STIG with several Microsoft-specific changes. Note: This STIG requires that a NIAP-approved version of Android 11 be installed on DOD-owned Microsoft Android devices. This STIG assumes that if a DOD Wi-Fi network allows a Microsoft device to connect to the network, the Wi-Fi network complies with the Network Infrastructure STIG; for example, wireless access points and bridges must not be connected directly to the enclave network.
