There are also plenty of other things happening in the Mac Admin community - lets talk through some of those things and get excited for what we are able to do now that we couldn’t do before!

What does it mean to be a Mac Admin in the year of jobs 2025? Long gone are the days of having to explain that no, that isn’t something that macs can integrate with. Instead we have all had to become experts in so many different silos within the modern IT organisation, from Identity, Security, Networking and Certificates. Being able to embrace and understand these concepts has also led to opportunities in career growth. Gone are the days where hoping for a small windowless room and the opportunity to get some new hardware to test once in a while was seen as a good deal. The growth of macOS in the enterprise has meant that our skills are incredibly attractive to large organisations, especially if we are able to combine technical prowess with the negotiation and collaboration required to drag Windows-centric teams towards the path of righteousness when it comes to a cross-platform or employee choice environment

Sriram & Preetham from Scalefusion join us to talk about device security & compliance, as well as how to handle the necessary access control issues that can come from it. Whether it’s SSF, app management, identity management, there’s always knock-on effects. How can folks handle them?

We have all enjoyed seeing Apple make the noticeable shift to embracing modern cloud identity with the integrations we have seen over the past few years. From modern authentication at enrollment, Single Sign on extensions through to Federation of Managed Apple accounts and Platform Single Sign-on. The announcements at WWDC this year gave us more reasons to be excited, with a whole bunch of new capabilities announced. What does this really mean and can I start using this in production tomorrow?
