Exciting community education updates from Valeria Tschida and Kelly Watkins Conrad, who talk us through efforts to bring technology to young learners around the world.

We're all excited about the debut of App Installers, and how Jamf's new feature will continue to evolve over time. Join us for another episode of the Jamf After Dark Podcast, when we phone ahead to the future and talk to Justin Clark, who has been solving the app update problem for years.

How do Jamf admins learn to script? By "borrowing" tips from other smart people on the internet. Join us for a rebooted Jamf After Dark Podcast with special guest Armin Briegel, the keeper of scriptingosx.com!

What is the cloud? Where is it? If you can't see it, how do you know it's there? What makes these clouds so resilient anyways? Join us for another episode of the Jamf After Dark Podcast when we solve all the cloudy problems of the world, with one of the few who can do it, Todd Ebersviller!

So we finish writing some sweet line of code and it just magically shows up in our cloud and on prem instances, right? Obviously not! But how does the machinery work? What are some of the controls we implement to make sure we ship good software? What part does compliance play? Luckily Jon Miller, the Senior Release Manager at Jamf, agreed to join us for this episode - where we unpack all this and more!

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!

Annie and Charles are joined by Daniel MacLaughlin to tell us a little about what it's like jetting around the Asia Pacific countries, deploying all the things - and of course we get him to tell us about snakes and the creative naming schemes Australians use for them (which is not unlike many a naming scheme used for packages over the years)!

We were lucky enough to convince the most excellent Kelly Watkins Conrad to join us on this episode of the podcast. After spending years in support and sales, she has all the info on moving to Jamf Cloud. In this episode, she talks DNS, certificates, and of course - doodling! It's a blast and we are so happy to get our final episode of 2020 out to everyone. We hope everyone has a safe and wonderful holiday season and see you back for the fourth season of Jamf After Dark soon!

Dave Saltmarsh joins Annie and Charles in this episode to talk about how things are going in education, what an education strategist does, and share some of his knowledge from decades of experience in the classroom and then enabling edtech for others. It's a great journey, with lots to think about (which is pretty much every conversation anyone has ever had with him).

We've talked to UX, product managers, engineers, and all kinds of other people on the podcast. But never a product owner. So Sara Graves joins the Jamf After Dark podcast to talk about product owners, how they help teams succeed, and one of the more intriguing aspects to many a customer, how they help prioritize work to be done on products!
