Jamf Event showcases product innovations aimed at helping organizations meet security and compliance needs

MINNEAPOLIS, April 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, Jamf (NASDAQ: JAMF), the standard in managing and securing Apple at work, held a special Jamf Event to showcase a number of new offerings developed to help organizations maximize technology investments and meet important compliance needs. The live-streamed event, split into concurrently streamed commercial and education keynotes, showcased new and upcoming updates to Jamf’s Apple-first, Apple-best management and security platform.

“At Jamf, we celebrate the ways that Apple devices are different, but also know they still need to meet the same high compliance standards as other devices used for work,” said Sam Johnson, Chief Customer Officer at Jamf. “This means IT admins are being asked to get more involved beyond traditional device management functions to help meet these various compliance standards across their Apple devices. Jamf is proud to deliver a platform that organizations trust and users love, and our approach to providing tools that help customers navigate the vast and varied compliance landscape is no exception.”

Product updates highlighted during the Jamf Event include:

Streamlined enforcement of compliance and security benchmarks

• Compliance dashboard in Jamf Protect sets a new standard for visualizing device compliance status - Jamf added a customizable compliance dashboard to Jamf Protect providing a new way of visualizing compliance – in accordance with CIS benchmarks – across an entire fleet of devices. The new dashboard allows Jamf admins to view an aggregate baseline score or “Fleet Hardening Score” as well as the ability to drill down into specific details to understand and remediate compliance issues within their device fleet.

• Compliance Editor with Jamf Pro for iOS and iPadOS removes ambiguity around enforcing compliance on mobile devices - Compliance Editor is the tool that generates deployable configuration files in Jamf Pro that allow organizations to meet CIS benchmarks. Jamf announced Compliance Editor is now available for iOS and iPadOS, ensuring consistent security benchmarks can be met across Mac, iPhone and iPad. With Compliance Editor, it only takes admins a few clicks to generate hundreds of detailed configurations required to make endpoints compliant with a chosen benchmark.

• Jamf Routines in Jamf Pro make powerful self-healing workflows a reality - Jamf announced Jamf Routines, which offers Jamf Pro customers new no-code automations and integrations to make IT teams more powerful and efficient. Now, admins can set up an integration between Jamf Pro and Slack or Microsoft Teams with automated alerts based on specific criteria such as when a device falls out of compliance. With Jamf Routines, admins can also specify when a re-deploy of the Jamf Management Framework may be required to get devices back into compliance, improving overall security and compliance posture.
