Intune to Block Inbuilt Passwords App iOS / iPadOS 18

We have just updated our organisation's iPad's to iPadOS 18, and noticed that there's a new passwords app that is preinstalled. This is an app that could cause some security concerns, as they are shared devices, so we're needing to remove this app.

I have looked gone through some of our existing Configuration Policies that is found in Devices > iOS/iPadOS Configuration > Device Restrictions > Built-in apps. From here we've been able to block apps such as FaceTime and Find My; however, there seems to be no options for the Passwords app.

I've also attempted changed the Show or Hide Apps policy, but it seems to only work for third party apps from the App Store.

If there's any alternative solutions, or an update for when Intune will support this restriction, that would be a great help.
