MacAdmins is the premier East Coast conference for anyone who deploys and manages devices in the Apple ecosystem. Over the last 14 years we featured hundreds of sessions and many workshops with top notch speakers in the MacAdmins community. MacAdmins offers an incredible level of expertise, value, entertainment, and a great opportunity to network with your fellow admins!
Apple is slowly shifting its device management focus to Declarative, and we can expect MDMv1 to slowly die by attrition over the next few years. This year's session is a sequel to last year's "Behind the MDM Curtain," updating it for this new DDM age. We will discuss how declarations are created, activated, and how the client is now making its own decisions about what gets managed. With a focus on Software Update declarations, we'll dive into examples and look for logs for inspection.
