Working effectively with Apple platforms in a corporate environment requires a shift in mindset, moving away from decades of IT dogma. This guide helps integrate Apple products seamlessly into your organization, acknowledging that the Apple ecosystem is here to stay. It begins with insights into the direction of Apple, third-party software vendors, and the IT community, particularly focusing on Mobile Device Management (MDM) and its underlying mechanics. Understanding MDM is crucial for configuring your networks to support it while ensuring minimal access to servers or services. The book also explores management agents beyond MDM, detailing when to use agents versus other options. Once a management solution is in place, you can deploy profiles on devices or Macs using scripts. With a focus on "Apple device management," you'll learn to customize and package software for deployment, securing devices effectively. Additionally, it guides you in establishing standard QA environments for more efficient testing. Apple is redefining its role in IT, competing with giants like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, and is not bound by traditional management practices. This guide encourages embracing Apple's innovative approach to device management rather than forcing outdated methods onto Apple devices.
