      2. iOS & macOS: Added an option to configure 45 days as the expiry period
   2. macOS Device Profile changes:
      1. The macOS Device profile has been restructured and reorganized to call out the deprecated settings in a more clear way and for configuring the important policies easily.
      2. To avoid accidental data sync issues, the iCloud settings are enabled by default for new profiles.
      3. Require admin password to install or update apps: This setting has been set to false by default for new profiles.
      4. OS Update Settings: A new setting Restrict to Admin Users only has been added to control app installations and software updates. Please note that enabling this setting would block silent installation of VPP and Enterprise applications and hence the default is set to false.
