    Jordan Burnette on Transitioning From A Solo Admin To Team

    Jordan Burnette on Transitioning From A Solo Admin To Team

    Being a solo admin is great! So is going to a larger team, where the whole is much greater than the sum of its parts. We interview Jordan Burnette about such a transition in today’s episode.

    Arek Dreyer - Back By Popular Demand

    When polled, one of the most requested guests was one we’ve had on before, Arek Dreyer. So rather than tell Arek, what we wanted to talk about, we thought we’d hit him up for what he wanted to talk about!

    Keychain is one of the best password managers on the market - especially for the money. In this episode, we chat with Cody Thomas about his research into Keychain security, where he was able to find some successes in red teaming, and where his attempts were thwarted!

    Admins face challenges with their own vaults of secrets. How do we secure/share secrets like passwords, but also those that aren’t, like SSH keys, certs, or passkeys? And what about mass deployments and IdP integrations?

Essential for the Enterprise

My entire team usually has a conversation soon after a new episode comes out beginning with “did you listen to the MacAdmins podcast yet?”. It has become an invaluable dialogue for Mac IT personnel that listeners are able to benefit from, and a high quality one at that. Thank you all!

Mixed Audio levels are very bad!

I've tried listening to several episodes and I must say the sound levels are all over the place. If they could agree on the same mic type or a balance in audio levels, or speak into their own mic perhaps it would be great. I fine it very hard to understand some if not all of the guest at times. As if they're speaking through a laptop's mic and passing it to person to person.
