Installing using MDM on Mac

Without MDM, permissions have to be manually approved due to Apple requirements. It's a few button clicks to approve if you're just testing, but it doesn't scale for wider deployments, for which we highly recommend (require) MDM

We've pre-created a custom profile to make MDM profile deployment easy. Our mac MDM profile (.mobileconfig) consists of 4 configurations:

1. Root Certificate - for trusting the on-device SSL inspection

2. Network Extension Permission - for re-routing traffic to the on-device proxy

3. VPN Permission - for re-routing traffic to the on-device proxy

4. Privacy Preferences Permission - for anti-tampering

Sample system extension policy from Simple MDM

The easiest method to import these is to upload, or copy & paste the custom profile below into your MDM software. You can also manually create it.

Some MDM software will require you to save & upload this as a .mobileconfig file

After deploying the MDM profile, you can now upload the .zip and have it deployed to your target systems.

It's unusual, but if you need a DMG for any reason, you can run this command:

hdiutil create -format UDZO -srcfolder dope_security_mac_1.0.9723 dope_1-0-9721.dmg

After deploying MDM & the installer to your target devices, users will no longer be required to enter your password or accept other permissions. That's it!
