Jamf Executive Threat Protection release: better detection, MDM deployment and more

Jamf Executive Threat Protection provides security — SOC and forensics — teams with advanced threat detection and response capabilities, automated reports, and unique sophisticated analysis engine to detect malicious activity and 0-day threats on mobile devices. Designed for employees who require the most stringent security, like high-risk individuals or traveling executives, it keeps data safe from increasingly sophisticated attacks targeting mobile devices. By analyzing a variety of data from mobile devices, Jamf Executive Threat Protection can identify indicators of compromise (IOC) that result from mercenary spyware attacks.

With this most recent release, Jamf Executive Threat Protection adds important capabilities. Let's take at look at the highlights below.

Updates to deployment and activation methods

The combination of the Threat Protect app (for end-user devices) and the Connector app (for the host computer) provides SOC teams with deep inspection into what happened on mobile devices. This update unifies and simplifies its deployment process in the Jamf Executive Threat Protection console. Enabling a streamlined deployment process improves how organizations can scale their use of Jamf Executive Threat Protection — securing the entire fleet against advanced attacks.

Along with the deployment update, Jamf Executive Threat Protection also has an improved activation and deployment method. Organizations can now deploy Jamf Executive Threat Protection to any of its managed, Apple mobile devices via MDM (like Jamf Pro).
