With MDM, an administrator can query managed

if users add unapproved apps or content.
MDM can also lock iOS devices or remotely wipe
any managed accounts or data, or wipe an iOS
device entirely.
Users:
Back up the device to iTunes or iCloud, to save
documents and other personal content.
If the iOS device is lost or stolen, the user can locate
it with Find My iPhone.
When the MDM relationship is removed, managed
accounts and data are removed, but the users
personal apps, books, data, and content are kept.
Note: VPP books are permanently assigned. They can’t
be revoked.
