The other alternative is to not allow non company supplied hardware to
connect to the corporate network.

If a user leaves the company I would hope you disable the account if not
delete it.  If the account is disabled it will not sync.  If I remember
correctly on the restore, it does not restore the data just the setup
information so if a device is wiped and a user does a restore, if the
account is disabled/deleted, it will error on the connection and there
will be nothing on the device.

However, the other reason for a wipe is when a user leaves a company,
has a personal iPhone that has been connected to corporate resources,
and you now want to wipe and clear the device.  I don't want that user
to EVER be able to reconnect and resync that device, thus the change of
the password on AD and some other steps that can be taken to block
reconnection to Exchange...

So John, if I interpret your comment, the THIEF would have to be on the
mac/pc that has the backup for the iPhone device to be succesful? I ask
since I'm not a fan of Apple and I have very little time to test this
out, since I'm a one person IT shop.

This is why you force a password lock on the device, with a bad password
attempt limit so the device will auto erase after x attempts.  If a
device is locked, iTunes will not back it up, unless the system they are
running iTunes on has already backed up the device before.  You have to
put in the password then iTunes will recognize it.  So I guess if they
get the iphone and the mac/pc that is used to sync with then you are
SOL.

I know it's not an ideal answer, but assuming you're wiping because of a
stolen device, the thief will hopefully not have had time to make a
backup - and probably never would have anyway - so the "iPhone" will not
try to resync with the same credentials and, by all accounts, succeed.

So if I read the thread correctly and according to THX1138 ;) 

 

On a serious note: if a iPhone has been wiped and deleted and after a
restore of the device, the credentials will reappear? I hope that's not
the case. I think I need to test this out now.

 

At our organization (Girl Scouts) we looked at BBs (too expensive for
us) so we allowed WinMobile and the iPhone...but I never tested the wipe
/ delete on the iPhone.

 

Great, now this adds another issue to my current standings......@!!!!

I'm guessing that there were 2 "yankers", Ben, and then Dave.

I do believe that Ben is yanking your chain.

THX1138 is almost certainly a reference to the George Lucas film.  He's
indicating that these steps are not documented on Apple's support
knowledgebase.

 

I could be wrong, it's been a while since I've seen the movie so I might
be missing the allusion.

have a URL for this article as I would like to read it.
