It seems like every day there is a new tool or product out there that is promising our end users abilities on par of turning lead into gold. With just this one tool, our end users can do anything! If only their pesky IT team would let them install it, then they could generate endless shareholder value, become super efficient, and actually this exact tool is critical for their job and how dare you question it!  When end users are requesting new tools that will lead them to the promised lands, how can we as IT teams ensure that the tools are actually what they say they are, and how can we measure their risk in our environments?  Hosts: Tom Bridge - @tbridge@theinternet.social Marcus Ransom - @marcusransom Selina Ali - LinkedIn Guests: Alex Smith - LinkedIn Links: Apparency, Suspicious Package & Archaeology: https://www.mothersruin.com/ Otool Man Page: https://keith.github.io/xcode-man-pages/otool-classic.1.html Alex's Presentation at Mac Admins Europe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5DXOagVtpA LaunchControl: https://www.soma-zone.com/LaunchControl/ Mac Monitor: https://github.com/Brandon7CC/mac-monitor DBVisualizer: https://www.dbvis.com/ Apple Github: https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions Jonathan Levin's books at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Jonathan-Levin/author/B008ZF7ZKK Tyrrell P34 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrrell_P34 Sponsors: Iru Fleet Device Management Workbrew Watchman Monitoring If you're interested in sponsoring the Mac Admins Podcast, please email podcast@macadmins.org for more information.

Brands are things that I never really thought about when I was younger. I knew and trusted certain brands based on some reputation that I subliminally learned from…somewhere. Sure I've set up non profits, I've represented businesses professionally around the world, I have been a part of a larger brand that someone worked hard to create. But as someone with zero marketing finesse, I was shocked when I was interviewing for a job internally years ago, and someone mentioned that I had a strong brand. Me? Anti Marketing - having a brand?  We all have a brand, whether it's literally a company that we own or a company we represent, or figuratively as one we put out in the world. And if you're like me, someone who hasn't put much thought into what having a brand means, and why you should care about protecting it - this episode is for you.

This episode is a little bit different than our usual live recordings. Usually our live recordings are on stage, in front of an audience- with guests that follows a very similar format to what we usually do.  This episode is not that - it has many guests- who will introduce themselves, a hazy plotline, and was recorded with a stolen microphone, unofficially, guerilla style at the first ever MacAdmins Europe conference. Follow me throughout the day as I accost victims- I mean guests- on the spot and ask questions about the conference, their perspectives, and what they've enjoyed most.  Hosts: Selina Ali - LinkedIn Links: https://macadmins-eu.org/  https://macadmins-eu.org/2026/videos/  Sponsors: Iru Fleet Device Management Workbrew Watchman Monitoring If you're interested in sponsoring the Mac Admins Podcast, please email podcast@macadmins.org for more information.

Security in healthcare feels like an unwinnable race right now. Threat actors move incredibly fast, leaving hospital networks highly exposed.Healthcare IT Today sat down with Patrick McGill, President and CEO of Community Health Network, and Jon Brown, CIO at TripleKey. They discussed why traditional patching cycles and static security audit reports no longer protect patient safety. They explain how switching to continuous, real-time monitoring helps health systems spot vulnerabilities and fix them the same day.Are you still relying on annual security audits to protect your network?

Everyone wants to manage devices these days, and not just Macs. Being able to embed device management into the platform you're already building can provide a seamless experience for your users. Open source projects like NanoMDM are free, but the resources required to set them up and maintain them are not. Smplify is a new player on the market who provides the infrastructure to manage devices so you can build MDM directly into your own solution.

As managing Macs evolves, it's no longer enough to just configure the devices we are responsible for. What happened after we configured them, are they still configured that way, has the user managed to get around the controls we put in place.
