Jamf has always been a leader in Mac management for education. We continue to improve our footprint and hopefully impact in that space. Today's episode digs into some of the ways we do that, routes we have for educators to improve their skills, and how we see the future of device management in the space!

The Jamf Nation User Conference, or JNUC, is the largest gathering of Apple administrators on the planet. Maybe even in the universe! And it's free this year! In this episode we get behind the scenes a little with Jeff Ovik and Katie English to discuss what worked in the first remote JNUC last year, what we'll be changing, and get a sneak preview into some of the aspects (and sessions) they're most excited about!

Mike Scafide, the Manager of Product Feedback Programs at Jamf joins the podcast this week to talk about Beta programs, Release Candidates, and how we route feedback from early releases! We talk Jamf Nation, product - and how Jamf managed to be lucky enough to have him join us around 10 years ago! Oh and as a bonus - he tells us a little about his first Mac!

Malware. It happens. And when it does, we're really lucky to have a global community of security researchers that help identify, reverse engineer, and mitigate the impact of these nasties. In this episode we are joined by Jaron Bradley who is the Manager, MacOS Detections at Jamf and author of the book "OS X Incident Response: Scripting and Analysis" to tell us a little about the contributions he and many others, spread across a number of companies, make to help keep organizations and humans safer from bad actors.

Once upon a time, we tried to pipeline logs to centralized syslog hosts. And it was never great. Then, Apple gave us unified logging and the amount of logs skyrocketed. So the cmdReporter team took a step beyond that and built some amazing tooling to flow logs off Macs and into whatever SEIM an organization needs! Today, we talk with Dan Griggs about the philosophies, some of the tactics, and the massive case statements underneath cmdReporter! OK, so just kidding about the case statements but it was a super-fun episode!

What does the rest of 2021 have in store for security on Apple devices? What's the top thing Apple admins need to know about the state of security for the platform? What really defines crafty? And what face tattoos should we get?!?! Jamf's Chief Information Security Officer Aaron Kiemele joins the Jamf After Dark Podcast to answer all these crazy questions and... spoiler alert - by the end of the episode Annie threatens to take her thermostat out of the wall (hopefully after winter)!

Cynthia Williamson and Nick Amundsen join the podcast in this episode, to talk through the difficult task of translating company strategy into shippable increments of products that customers  want. We discuss balancing quality, roadmaps, company strategy, and working through the evolving landscape of a growing engineering and product organization.

Linnea Olson joins Annie and Charles for an episode to tell us all about her favorite game on the Apple II, how she's stayed sane during quarantine, and tell us a little about what happens when customers respond to those customer success surveys. We'll talk through NPS, movie clubs, and dealing with keeping twin 4-year olds at home!

Deb and Krzysztof join the podcast to talk design! In this episode we go from how design language informs how we work to how design systems help an organization consistently apply those frameworks. We talk user experience, design, and try and get at the heart of the matter: when we can get the neon lime green (or maybe brushed metal) back!

Few people understand that intersection between small businesses and Apple Device Management as Karen Goss. She was kind enough to join the podcast for this latest episode talking through Jamf Now, some stats on the state of affairs for small businesses, and one more thing... a marketing tip for any small business owners listening in!
