I agree with it. If Apple supports Device Management scheme, S.Korea Military won't prevent iPhone. Actually not just iPhone but all other phones that MDM cannot be installed.


Apple iPhone has supported MDM for years: http://www.apple.com/iphone/business/integration/mdm/


This should be the top comment on this article.

S.Korea bans phones that do not support MDM. iPhone supports MDM. Therefore iPhone is banned anyway.


But I don't think the military would be entrust there security on the Apple Push notification service. Also any military would always be skeptical unless they have access to the whole source code.
