    Episode 461: Apple Business 2026

    First they came for MCX, and nobody said anything… Then they came for DEP, which became Automated Device Enrollment (but definitely not ADE). MDM was next, we got messages telling us that we weren't allowed to call it DMS, it was device management systems - all lowercase and also not an acronym. Now the pedants among us (we see you and respect you) no longer have to feel awkward about referring to Apple School Manager and Apple Business Manager as AxM… What did the TLAs do to you Apple, what made you hate them SOOO much. In a likely nod to Elvis, Apple decided that it's time to TCB and ABM is now Apple Business.

    Episode 456: Patrick Wardle on iOS Security

    iOS security is an important topic that we don't talk about nearly enough. The current moment is driving a lot of people to understand it better, though! Let's dive in on iOS Security! We wanted to talk about iOS security. There's been a lot of conversations lately about how our personal devices can sell us out, and how attackers can come after your mobile devices, both personal and corporate.

    Episode 455: Encyclopedia Bufftanica

    There are some people in the workplace that you know you can always count on to have an answer for a really obscure question or a tool to point you in the right direction for finding those esoteric bits of knowledge. Someone where every time you talk to them they absolutely blow your mind with some new piece of information or fun new tool in the workplace. Today's guest is one of those people- someone whose every response prompts immediate note taking and bookmarking because some day - we'll need those obscure facts while troubleshooting a problem and they will have it.

    Episode 454: Ten Year Podiversary

    It was March 2016 when the first episode of the Mac Admins Podcast dropped, lead by the theme song that Adam Codega composed the first time he opened garage band. Hard to believe it!
