For security and confidentiality reasons, anyone who has access to the consoles as an administrator can click the remote on any device and view what is happening without the end user’s permission.
Admins can now configure the remote request on macOS devices using the “Unattended Remote Support” functionality under “SureMDM Agent Settings Job”. Enabling this feature would give end-users additional permission to share their macOS machine screen.
The password used for uninstallation is used to lock the settings tab of macOS Agent.
