From Chaos to Compliance - Management and Threat Protection for Apple devices in Higher Education

Managing and securing Windows devices across universities is common practice and ensures devices are secure, compliant, and under the control of university ICT teams. Apple devices, however, are often overlooked and therefore become an issue for ICT and compliance leaders.

This session will share the experience of the University of Limerick, who will outline their respective journey from ‘Chaos to Compliance’

UL needed to transition into a more secure environment to understand the cyber threats touching their network. Introducing a comprehensive device management solution meant having the best start possible to achieve security by design in both settings.

The Jamf suite of products is used to achieve UL’s compliance objectives on Apple devices. Jamf solutions operate within a broader ecosystem, working alongside Microsoft Intune and the possibility for reporting live into Microsoft Entra ID.

These integrations help enforce compliance and protect UL-owned devices against threats, ensuring that only trusted users on authorized devices can access university resources.

This session is an opportunity to learn from those who have implemented a successful Apple Devices Management strategy across their university. Regardless of what device a user chooses to procure, ICT teams are confident in their ability to secure and manage devices equally.
