Enrollment SSO (Single Sign-On) is a feature that allows users to sign in to their work or school accounts on their Apple devices, enabling seamless access to organizational resources. This feature is part of the broader device management capabilities provided by Apple, which includes automated device enrollment, user enrollment, and platform SSO.

For more details, you can refer to the session titled "What’s new in device management" from WWDC 2024. Here are some relevant segments:

  • Automated Device Enrollment: This allows IT teams to ship devices directly to users, enroll them into MDM, customize the setup experience, and ensure they are ready to be managed without physical interaction. This is available for Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and now Apple Vision Pro (What’s new in device management).
  • Platform SSO: Developers can build SSO extensions that extend to the macOS login window, allowing users to synchronize local account credentials with an identity provider. This year, the capabilities of platform SSO have been expanded to leverage information from identity providers in more places (What’s new in device management).
