TMA-INTUNE-MACOS-2.8.1
Ensure "Allow Bluetooth Sharing Modification" is set to "False"
Description
Bluetooth Sharing allows users to exchange files with other Bluetooth-enabled devices. Setting "Allow Bluetooth Sharing Modification" to "False" prevents users from changing the Bluetooth sharing settings in System Settings. The benchmark marks this a Manual check of an Intune macOS policy setting that cannot be read from the endpoint with a script, so TMAegis lists it as a manual review item with the audit steps (the policy must be inspected in the Intune admin center or on the managed device).
How it is checked
Audit method: Manual review
This recommendation cannot be checked automatically. A scan lists it with these instructions when you pass --include-manual.
macOS: Intune admin center: Expand the Restrictions heading; Verify that Allow Bluetooth Sharing Modification is present and set to False. On the device: Double-click com.apple.applicationaccess Profile; Under the Details section; Confirm Allow Bluetooth Sharing Modification is set to False
How it is fixed
Fix method: Guidance or infrastructure patch
Intune admin center: Select Restrictions; Check Allow Bluetooth Sharing Modification; On the left side of the page set Allow Bluetooth Sharing Modification to False; Verify that Allow Bluetooth Sharing Modification is present and set to False
