Macs are safe - they don’t get malware. We used to hear this all the time and whilst Apple has done a wonderful job of building a secure by design operating system, there are still threats out there we need to protect ourselves against. It’s also no surprise that macOS is not Windows. And it’s further and further away from behaving like UNIX these days. So how do we know what to look for, and where to even go looking for it? Jaron Bradley from Jamf Threat Labs joins us to talk about his new book: Threat Hunting macOS - Mastering endpoint security

We’re at Beta 3 and at least a third of the way through the beta season. How are things going, what have we discovered so far and what are we still looking to find out?

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

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?

Declarative Device Management is just as easy as turning on the protocol, accepting the messages, and then responding over the new channel, right? Should be a couple weeks' work for any MDM, right?

With WWDC announced for June 9 through 12 this year, we’re all looking forward to whatever new device management capabilities we get to see. Toss a coin to your MDM vendors (o' valley of plenty) for they are the ones that need to turn these wonderful new frameworks and features into something that we as Mac Admins can integrate into the workflows we need to create the magical end user experiences we strive for.

Jobs are great, and we’re not just talking Steve here. Some of us are even fortunate enough to have a job. In the current economic climate, changing jobs isn’t always something that can be planned, so holding onto a job is often our primary concern. But how do we know when we have outgrown our current role? What are some of the signs that it’s time to start looking? How do we know if we are jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire? What are some of the strategies that we can use to make sure we advance our career and preserve our sanity?

Who doesn’t like a nice round number? Much like watching the odometer on the car tick over, we decided to make something special of episode 400, even if it technically might be the 410th episode we recorded… Please allow us to indulge ourselves by having a look back on the almost nine years we have been doing this. We are so humbled y’all are still here!
