I wanted to start a thread on best practices for dealing with lost and stolen devices (Macs / iOS).Some older threads exist, but with the new Apple Silicon Macs and newer OS security enhancements, I wanted to check back on this topic and see what peo...

We are looking into it, but have not used it yet. I see there is a 14 day free trial for it which we may or may not use to test with in our JAMF Sandbox environment and on test macs to see if it adds more value than work.It seems interesting in the f...

Looks like iCloud Activation Lock for iOS devices can be bypassed by a few tools out there. Not sure if you were aware.We are looking at doing something similar to leaving them in ABM and then pointing the lost/stolen devices to a custom prestage ima...

Thank you - that helps a lot.
