For years, many companies believed that Apple devices were inherently secure. That illusion has faded. In this episode of Tech Talks Daily I speak with Adam BoyntonSenior Security Strategy Manager at Jamf, about why visibility in macOS and iOS is no longer a luxury but a necessity.
Adam explains how Jamf evolved from device management to complete Apple-owned security intelligence, protecting more than 75,000 organizations and more than 32 million devices. He shares how attackers are moving from targeting individual operating systems to entire ecosystems, exploiting the gap between how Apple secures its platforms and how companies actually monitor them.
Adam describes how telemetry provides security teams with the truth about what’s really happening at their endpoints, from real-world use cases to lessons learned at Jamf’s annual JNUC conference, helping them move from reactive incident response to proactive defense.
Our conversation covers everything from the architectural blind spots that traditional Windows-centric tools can’t see to the rise of AI-driven analytics that turn complex forensic investigations into minute-long processes. We also explore how Jamf’s partnerships, such as with Elastic, create an open and integrated future for enterprise security, combining deep Apple signals with cross-platform context.
For anyone still clinging to the myth that macOS or iOS “just works” with no regard for security, this episode is a wake-up call. Adam outlines practical advice on patching, mobile hygiene and zero trust, while revealing how Jamf’s latest innovations are quietly making the most secure way the easiest way for users.
Hear how Jamf is redefining modern Apple security, bringing together governance, identity, and protection into a seamless whole, and why accurate insight (not assumptions) is now the objective measure of your cybersecurity readiness.
