An IT administrator at a company discovers that several company-owned smartphones have Developer mode enabled. The administrator needs to assess the situation. What is the initial step the administrator should take to address the issue?
Run a security audit on all company-owned smartphones.
Check and perform all system updates for the affected smartphones.
Optimize the battery settings on the devices to prevent unauthorized access.
Document which devices have Developer mode enabled and gather information on any unusual apps or modifications.
The correct answer is to document which devices have Developer mode enabled and gather information on any unusual apps or modifications. This step is crucial as it helps in creating a record of the situation and determines if further actions, such as disabling Developer mode or performing security checks, are necessary. Checking for system updates, although important, doesn't immediately address the risks posed by having Developer mode enabled. Running a security audit is a broader action which might follow documentation but is not the first step. Optimizing battery settings is unrelated to the security risk posed by Developer mode.
