Bypassing the Activation Lock on supervised iOS devices

Activation Lock is an iOS feature that is designed to prevent others from using a lost or stolen iOS device or reactivating it without an owner's permission. Kaspersky Security Center allows to bypass the Activation Lock on supervised iOS devices without entering Apple ID and user's password by using a bypass code.

A bypass code is generated when an iOS device is connected to Kaspersky Security Center and becomes supervised.

To disable Activation Lock using a bypass code:

1. In the console tree, select Mobile Device Management → Mobile devices.
2. In the list of devices, select the device for which you need to view the bypass code by double-clicking.

   The properties window of the selected device opens.

3. In the properties window of the selected device, select the Advanced iOS MDM settings tab.
4. On the Advanced iOS MDM settings tab, click the crossed-out eye icon next to the Bypass code for Activation Lock (supervised only) option.

   The bypass code for Activation Lock is displayed.

5. On the Activation Lock screen of the supervised iOS device, enter the bypass code in the Apple ID password field. Leave the username field empty.

   Activation Lock is disabled on the device.
