Apple is all set for the government — and your company

The company is not just prepared with a broad and varied selection of enterprise-focused firms like Addigy, Jamf, Kandji, and all the other companies I converse with on a weekly basis. Its future-oriented platforms are inherently more resilient by design. This is evident from Apple’s decision to cease support for kernel extensions a few years back, among other instances. While no system can guarantee complete security, the majority of issues on Apple’s platforms arise from user mistakes rather than globally implemented automated PC-disrupting software updates.

Undoubtedly, the longstanding belief that Apple is primarily a consumer-oriented product unsuitable for business use persists, and altering that perception is an ongoing process — but incidents like the Crowdstrike disaster are likely to prompt individuals to question that standpoint.

The trend towards diversification seems to be gaining momentum.
