Securing Apple Devices: Insights and Discussion
Apple devices are trusted by organizations worldwide for their security, reliability, and user experience—but managing and securing them at scale requires thoughtful strategy and practical expertise. In this interactive session, Andrina Kelly and Ian Kelly will facilitate a conversation about the challenges and opportunities of managing Apple devices in today’s rapidly evolving security landscape.


Drawing on real-world scenarios and their combined expertise, they’ll explore key topics such as balancing user experience with security, responding to incidents, and advocating for investments in Apple device management strategies. This session will be an opportunity to ask questions, share experiences, and leave with actionable ideas tailored to your organization’s needs.
