The macOS X operating system uses property list (.plist) files to store application settings. Use compliance settings to evaluate and remediate settings in a property list file. You can also manage macOS X settings by writing a shell script that returns a value that you can evaluate and remediate for compliance.

## Certificate requirements
3227

3328
Client installation and management for Mac computers requires public key infrastructure (PKI) certificates. PKI certificates secure the communication between the Mac computers and the Configuration Manager site by using mutual authentication and encrypted data transfers. Configuration Manager can request and install a user client certificate. It uses Certificate Services with an enterprise certification authority, and the Configuration Manager enrollment point and enrollment proxy point. You can also request and install a computer certificate independently from Configuration Manager. This certificate must meet the Configuration Manager certificate requirements.
