      >If a provisioning package is signed by a trusted provisioner, it can be installed on a device without a prompt for user consent.

This is the only way to install a package without user consent. To provide additional security, you can also set **RequireProvisioningPackageSignature**, which prevents users from installing provisioning packages that are not signed by a trusted provisioner.
