Apple has done a great job of providing first-party applications to achieve pretty much anything you would want to do using their devices. From iMovie to Final Cut Pro, contentious changes to the Photos app, and the productivity tools like Pages, Numbers, and the awesome power of Keynote. Despite this, we generally need to provide much more than this to our users, installing applications from many different vendors with wildly varying approaches to installation, configuration and updates. There are almost as many approaches to managing the installation and patching of third-party software as there are vendors, and today we are going to speak to Adam Derrick from Jamf, and Dave Goldberg from Horizon BCBS about using Jamf App Installers in production.

In this episode, we tackle a fresh perspective on a common cybersecurity question: What keeps a CISO awake at night? According to Michael Covington, VP of Strategy at Jamf, the real issue isn't about external threats but rather a lack of robust security processes, especially in mobile device management. Covington shares insights on how a well-thought-out strategy can let CISOs rest easy, with their minds at ease knowing that key areas, from cyber hygiene to compliance, are under control. Our conversation dives into three primary areas that Covington believes are essential for keeping mobile device vulnerabilities at bay and ensuring secure integration within enterprise ecosystems. First, he highlights the often-overlooked importance of cyber hygiene. He notes that nearly 40% of mobile users operate devices with known vulnerabilities, a staggering figure that reveals the challenges organizations face in keeping devices up-to-date and correctly configured. Covington argues that regular updates, vigilant configuration management, and consistent patching practices are not just best practices—they're fundamental in building a secure foundation. Second, we explore the complexities of compliance, particularly when it comes to mobile devices. Covington points out that many organizations struggle to balance security regulations with the diverse landscape of personal and work devices. He suggests that the right tools can streamline compliance, ensuring that mobile devices align with broader corporate standards without creating unnecessary friction. Lastly, Covington addresses the evolving nature of BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) policies and the intricacies of managing shared devices. Despite their long-standing presence, these device policies often present challenges, with many organizations lacking effective management strategies. Covington emphasizes the need for layered solutions that integrate into existing security frameworks without overwhelming IT teams or sacrificing the user experience. Join us as we unpack Jamf's approach to these challenges and discuss the future of mobile security in industries from healthcare to aviation. How can organizations prepare for the next wave of AI-driven data on mobile devices? And what steps can they take now to ensure seamless, secure access for users? Listen in and share your thoughts on the balance between security, compliance, and user enablement in today's mobile-driven world.

Camilo Franco, Director of M&A Integration and Operations and Matt Arsenault, VP of Corporate Development & Strategic Alliances at Jamf (NASDAQ: JAMF)   Too often in M&A, diligence and integration operate in separate lanes. Diligence focuses on uncovering risks, while integration is left scrambling to make everything fit once the ink is dry. It's a classic case of working in silos, and it's leaving value on the table. But there's a way to break down those barriers from the start.   In this episode of the M&A Science Podcast, Matt Arsenault, VP of Corporate Development & Strategic Alliances at Jamf, and Camilo Franco, Director of M&A Integration and Operations, show us how to transform these silos into synergy by aligning diligence and integration from day one.   In this episode, you'll learn:  • Implementing a proactive buyer-led M&A strategy • Synchronizing diligence and integration planning • The importance of integration-led diligence • Building and refining the integration thesis • Collaborating with sellers to shape a seamless integration plan   ******************* This episode is sponsored by Grata.

In this engaging discussion, Ben reflects on his over 20-year journey in the Apple MSP world, the evolving landscape of IT management, and his role at Addigy. Ben shares insights on the integration of Apple-focused services into larger Windows-managed environments, the importance of compliance, and how Apple's advanced tools are setting new standards in the industry. This episode is filled with invaluable tips for MSPs looking to expand their Apple service offerings and successfully navigate the merger and acquisition landscape. The hosts reflect on the 10 years in between Ben's appearances. Ross Matsuda, another CCP guest, also worked for Forget Computers. Early on, Ben created Robot Cloud. This has since morphed into Vision Bot at Ntiva. Ben talks about adapting to client needs. Ben advises to look at the management tools that only focus on Apple products like Jamf, Kandji, and Addigy. We get into how Ben switched from Jamf to Addigy. Switching MDMs was harder than switching communication tools. Most small MSPs are under one million in revenue a year. Ben talks about how the 10,000 Small Business program by Goldman Sachs helped his business grow. Forget Computers was acquired by Ntiva. Ben takes us down that road.

Software Updates is a subject that is dear to the heart of all Mac Admins. Traditionally this was a task that we could only perform after devices were enrolled. Beginning with macOS 14, Automated Device Enrollment began to support the requirement of a Minimum OS Version, which allows us to mandate that the device is updated before we allow it to enroll into our device management system.

Has the longstanding belief in Apple's invulnerability to cyber threats finally been shattered? In today's episode of Tech Talks Daily, we're joined by Jaron Bradley, Director of Threat Labs at Jamf, to dissect this evolving narrative. As Apple devices have become commonplace in professional environments, they've also become hot targets for sophisticated cyber threats, including trojans, ransomware, and Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs). Jaron will unpack the seismic shift in the threat landscape for Apple's ecosystem, highlighting the transition from nuisance adware to more menacing malware varieties that now plague Mac environments. We'll explore why the myth of Apple's security invincibility is dissipating and discuss the strategic importance of acknowledging and addressing these vulnerabilities within organizational cyber frameworks. Moreover, Jaron will shed light on the dire state of cyber hygiene, particularly on mobile devices, and provide actionable insights on how organizations can bolster their defenses against this new wave of threats. With Jamf's cutting-edge solutions at the forefront, we'll delve into practical measures for enhancing security protocols and ensuring robust protection for Apple devices. As we navigate through these complex challenges, one question remains: Are we doing enough to adapt our security strategies to keep pace with these sophisticated threats? After listening, share your thoughts on how prepared you think organizations really are to tackle this new era of Apple vulnerabilities.

For years, IT and security have operated as separate entities within organizations, each with its own set of priorities and concerns. IT professionals often view security teams as the "Department of No," hindering progress and innovation. On the other hand, security teams see IT as reckless, prioritizing speed over safety. However, as digital transformation accelerates, the need for these two departments to collaborate has never been more critical. Linh Lam, the Chief Information Officer at Jamf Software brings her expertise to the table, shedding light on the root causes of the tension between IT and security teams. She argues that this division is not just counterproductive but also detrimental to the organization's overall health. Linh outlines four key strategies to mend this fractured relationship: changing the culture of division, fostering early collaboration and communication, overcoming C-suite hierarchy issues, and adopting the CISO-as-risk-management-leader model. During the podcast, Neil and Linh explore the negative impacts of poor communication and lack of collaboration between these two critical teams. They emphasize the importance of transparency, partnership, and joint planning to avoid unintended consequences and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of security initiatives. The conversation also touches on the challenges of bridging the gap between IT and security, particularly the role of executive leadership in fostering collaboration and breaking down silos. Linh stresses the need for the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) to act as a risk management leader, elevating the conversation around security and educating the organization on its importance in achieving business objectives. Towards the end, the discussion shifts to the challenge of balancing speed and security in IT initiatives. We both agree that collaboration between IT and security is essential for aligning roadmaps and understanding the risks and outcomes, thereby enabling a successful digital business transformation. This episode offers a nuanced look at an issue that affects nearly every modern organization. It's a must-listen for CIOs, CISOs, and any digital technology leader looking to better understand how to harmonize the often conflicting agendas of IT and security teams for the greater good of the organization.
