Check Text (C-272170r1067624_chk)

This check procedure is performed on the device management tool and the iPhone. Note: If an organization has multiple configuration profiles, the check procedure must be performed on the relevant configuration profiles applicable to the scope of the review. In the iOS management tool, verify "Allow call recording" is unchecked. On the iPhone: 1. Open the Settings app. 2. Tap "Apps". 3. Tap "Call Recording". 4. Verify the "Call Recording" toggle is off and grayed out (cannot be set to "On"). If "Allow Call Recording" is not disabled in the management tool or "Call Recording" can be enabled on the iPhone, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-76127r1067614_fix)

Install a configuration profile to disable recording cell phone calls.
