MD-102 Manage and maintain devices Practice Question
A company manages devices with Microsoft Intune. They need to deploy a line-of-business (LOB) app to iOS devices. Which TWO of the following are required?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many exam-takers confuse the general prerequisites for iOS management (like the Apple MDM push certificate) with the specific requirements for deploying an LOB app, leading them to select option E incorrectly.

Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The app package must be in .ipa format
IOS line-of-business (LOB) apps must be packaged in the .ipa format, which is the standard iOS app package that Intune can deploy directly to devices. Intune uses the .ipa file to install the app on supervised or unsupervised iOS devices via the MDM channel, and the app must be signed with an Apple Developer Enterprise certificate or a distribution certificate.
