Why Is My Phone Out of Compliance?

Overview

If you receive an email stating:

Hello,
Your device is noncompliant with CalGiant Mobile Device Management policies.
Please contact helpdesk@calgiant.com as soon as possible.

This means your device does not meet CalGiant security policies and needs to be updated to regain compliance.


Symptoms

  • Email notification about noncompliance.
  • Unable to access company resources due to Conditional Access restrictions.
  • Compliance check in Company Portal shows a red exclamation mark.

Cause

  • Missing or inactive Active Shield (Better Mobile Security) protection.
  • Device security threshold set to Medium instead of Low.
  • Cached unsafe Wi-Fi networks affecting compliance status.

Step 1: Open Company Portal

  • Locate and open the Comp Portal app on your device.

Step 4: Activate Active Shield

  • Open the Active Shield app from your device.

  • After restart, open Active Shield and tap Scan Again.

Step 5: Recheck Compliance in Company Portal

  • Return to Company Portal and tap Retry to confirm compliance.

Additional Notes

  • Compliance requires Active Shield to report Low risk.
