Move beyond basic Mac management

Enrollment is only the beginning. Ivanti helps you manage the full Mac lifecycle, establish trusted device posture and turn compliance signals into action. When a Mac falls out of policy, you can require remediation, limit access or automate the response. Your teams gain stronger control without creating an Apple-only management silo.

Provision every Mac with less effort

Integrate with Apple Business Manager to simplify enrollment and configure devices over the air. Apply required settings, distribute approved apps and content, and guide employees through a consistent setup experience wherever they work. Policy-driven workflows help IT scale onboarding without relying on repetitive manual steps.

Keep employees productive without giving up control

Deliver the apps, settings and access employees need from day one. Self-service options reduce routine requests, while context-aware policies help protect corporate resources. IT can maintain a reliable Mac experience for office, remote and contract workers without adding friction to every interaction.

Automate updates, apps, and compliance at scale

Organize and roll out operating system updates, applications and configuration changes across device groups and deployment stages. Use Apple’s declarative device management to enforce software updates, then apply policy-driven workflows when devices drift from the expected state. Ivanti helps your team automate repeatable action with governance and control.

Manage macOS and every other OS, in one platform

Give employees the freedom to choose their devices while IT keeps consistent control. Deliver deep, native macOS management alongside full management of iOS, iPadOS, Windows, Android, and Linux, with unified policies, reporting, and compliance across the entire fleet.

Automate detection and remediation of macOS issues

Resolve problems before users notice them. Detect drift, failed installs, and noncompliant settings with predicate-based conditions, then trigger scripts, configuration reapplication, and corrective actions automatically, with results reported back to the server.

Features and capabilities

Make Mac part of your Autonomous Endpoint Management strategy

Your Mac fleet does not operate on its own. Ivanti brings macOS into a common autonomous endpoint management solution alongside managing and securing Windows, iOS, Android, ChromeOS and Linux devices. Give IT and security consistent posture signals, policy enforcement and automation across the enterprise, without re-platforming as your environment grows.

Enforce disk encryption and recovery

Protect data at rest on every Mac without relying on users. Enable FileVault silently, escrow personal recovery keys to the MDM, and rotate them after use so lost or locked devices stay recoverable.

Diagnose and remediate issues automatically

Use event-based automation to identify common issues, initiate remediation and reduce repetitive work. Employees geta better digital experience, while IT spends more time on higher-value priorities.

Align with Apple-native frameworks

Support Apple Business Manager, Declarative Device Management, and Platform SSO as Apple evolves its enterprise frameworks. Enforce supported software updates, and maintain a modern path forward for Mac management.

Simplify enrollment across user types

Help employees get productive quickly while IT applies the right controls from the start. Take advantage of streamlined experiences like account-driven device enrollment and setup assistant capabilities.

Deliver identity-driven access with Platform SSO

Tie the Mac login to the corporate identity provider. Platform SSO syncs the local account with cloud credentials and enables passwordless or phishing-resistant sign-in, so identity and device trust work together.

Automate OS and app updates

Keep devices patched and compliant without disrupting work. Use declarative software update enforcement to set target versions, deadlines, and deferral windows, and deploy managed apps and patches with minimal user interaction.

Manage local admin credentials

Remove standing admin rights and shared passwords. Use LAPS-style credential management to generate unique, rotating local admin passwords per device.

Diagnose and troubleshoot devices in context

Find root causes faster without leaving the session. Pull live device health, running processes, logs, and configuration state alongside the remote view, so technicians can diagnose and fix issues in one place.

Automate fixes and routine tasks at scale

Cut repetitive tickets and manual effort. Trigger scripts, remediation actions, and configuration changes automatically based on events, schedules, or device conditions, so common issues resolve without technician involvement.

Get better Mac compliance and access

Advance from just Mac configuration to trust, compliance, and access in one platform.
