Explanation

The IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) is a globally unique 15-digit number assigned to every mobile device at the time of manufacture - it identifies the physical hardware (the phone itself). It is the correct identifier to log during BYOD registration for device tracking and management. MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) is a wireless antenna technology for improving signal performance - not an identifier. IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity) identifies the subscriber/SIM card, not the physical device - it changes if a SIM is swapped. MAPI (Messaging Application Programming Interface) is a Microsoft email messaging protocol, completely unrelated to device identification.
