Configure Gatekeeper to Disallow End User Override

Control

Discussion

Gatekeeper _MUST_ be configured with a configuration profile to prevent normal users from overriding its settings.

If users are allowed to disable Gatekeeper or set it to a less restrictive setting, malware could be introduced into the system.

Fix

This is implemented by a Configuration Profile.
