💡 Still using the classic Drata experience? Refer to Multiple MDM Support for the original UI.
Drata supports connecting multiple Mobile Device Management (MDM) providers so you can monitor devices across different systems without consolidating everything into a single MDM.
This is useful for organizations that:
Use different MDMs for different teams or operating systems
Are migrating between MDM providers
Manage contractors or subsidiaries with separate device management tools
How multiple MDM support works
You can connect more than one MDM to Drata. Each connected MDM contributes device data, which Drata aligns to personnel for compliance monitoring.
Drata automatically handles syncing and data reconciliation across sources.
Prerequisites
Devices must already be enrolled in a supported MDM
You must have permission to manage connections in Drata
Workstation Configuration Monitoring must be enabled
View supported MDMs
Go to Connections
Filter by the MDM category
Supported platforms include providers such as Jamf, Intune, and Kandji.
Expected outcome: You can confirm which MDM platforms Drata supports before connecting.
Connect multiple MDMs
From Connections, select the MDM you want to connect
Follow the setup steps shown in the connection process
Repeat for each additional MDM you use
You can connect multiple MDMs without disabling existing connections.
Expected outcome: Drata receives device data from each connected MDM.
Enable and verify MDM monitoring
Select your account name in the lower-left corner
Select Settings
Go to Internal Security → Workstation Configuration Monitoring
Confirm your connected MDMs are listed and enabled
Expected outcome: Devices from connected MDMs are actively monitored for compliance.
MDM sync behavior and data priority
Nightly sync
Drata syncs device information from all connected MDMs nightly
Synced data is aligned to personnel automatically
Data priority rules
If the Drata Agent is installed on a device, Agent data takes priority
If no agent is present, MDM data is used
This prevents conflicting or duplicate device records
Summary
You can connect multiple MDMs
Devices must already exist in an MDM before syncing
Nightly sync keeps data current
Agent data overrides MDM data when both are present
