MacAD.UK Panel 2023

Standard

At this years macad.uk, I was invited to join the MacAdmins.org Podcast on stage for a live podcast.

I accepted, partly due to wanting to keep myself ahead of Joel.. and also as I was 3 ciders in (thanks to VMware for the open bar).

A link to this episode can be found below, and some of the conversation hasn’t aged too well.. with recent announcements made at WWDC.

JNUC2022 : On Bootstrap Tokens, Secure Tokens, and Volume Ownership

Standard

Not only was I on a panel at JNUC 2022, but I also gave a talk in person too titled: JNUC2022 : On Bootstrap Tokens, Secure Tokens, and Volume Ownership.

Despite me giving this talk in person, Jamf have published the prior recorded remote version (with the majority of talks recorded prior due to JNUC2022‘s hybrid nature).

One difference between this and the panel recording is that this one is COVID-19 free!

JNUC 2022: Patch Management Solutions Panel

Standard

For JNUC 2022, I was invited onto a panel to discuss patch management solutions for Jamf Pro once again.

This followed a similar format to the 2021 panel. Not only did this years panel include myself alongside Armin BriegelRyan Ball and Sam Weiss, but we were joined this time by Isaac Ordonez as well.

Sadly, for the recording, I was a little unwell and the following day tested positive for COVID-19. So, if I sound a little off, that’s why.

See below for a link to the panels video, as well as links to the JNUC 2022 YouTube playlist.

Managing iPads, for the Mac Admin

Standard

During day one of this years JNUC, I gave a talk titled “Managing iPads, for the Mac Admin”.

The premise of this talk was to touch on on things which are both familiar and unknown, when it comes to being a Mac Admin suddenly tasked with managing iPads.

Below you’ll find a link to the talks video and a link to the talks GitHub repo.

But, be warned.. I had 30 minutes to deliver over 100 slides and a little cold too.. so those that find my accent difficult at normal speed, might need to slow this one down or read the subtitles (which don’t appear to have any exciting surprises this time).
