In macOS Monterey, Apple is adding some much-needed upgrades to FaceTime, and it’s making it a clear competitor to Zoom for small businesses. This week, I want to go in-depth on what’s new with FaceTime in macOS Monterey and examine what Apple could do next to continue to make it a viable video conferencing alternative for businesses.

About Apple @ Work: Bradley Chambers has been managing an enterprise IT network since 2009. Through his experience deploying and managing firewalls, switches, a mobile device management system, enterprise-grade Wi-Fi, 100s of Macs, and 100s of iPads, Bradley will highlight ways in which Apple IT managers deploy Apple devices, build networks to support them, train users, stories from the trenches of IT management, and ways Apple could improve its products for IT departments.

What’s new in FaceTime for macOS Monterey?

FaceTime sees its most significant upgrade in 2021 since its original release. While many of these features would have been nice in the 2020 pandemic, it’s great to see Apple getting in much-needed upgrades in the future. FaceTime is still one of the easiest ways to do video calls, thanks to its integration with iMessage groups.

I am a heavy Facetime user with a few friends who live out of town. So throughout the week, I’ll frequently initiate FaceTime calls with a group text so I can catch up with friends. There’s a simple button in the top right on the iPhone FaceTime app to begin a call.

In macOS Monterey, FaceTime will feature Spatial Audio to create a “sound field that helps conversations flow as easily as they would face to face.” It will also isolate your voice from background noise and blur the background of your video. Android and PC users can now use FaceTime with their Apple counterparts as…

Bitglass Report Shows Enterprises Increasing Risk by Enabling BYOD

/in


Securing BYOD to prevent data loss/theft is a top concern.

A new Bitglass report shows that despite the surge in enterprises enabling bring your own device (BYOD), many are unprepared for the associated risks.

Bitglass’ 2021 BYOD Security Report show the rapid adoption of unmanaged personal devices connecting to work-related resources. It also highlights how organizations are ill-equipped to deal with growing security threats such as malware and data theft.

The Bitglass report is a joint venture with Cybersecurity Insiders. It surveyed hundreds of cybersecurity professionals across industries to better understand how COVID-19’s resulting surge of remote work has affected security and privacy risks introduced by the use of personal mobile devices.

The insights in this report are especially relevant. That’s because more enterprises are shifting to permanent remote work or hybrid work models. That means connecting more devices to corporate networks and, as a result, expanding the attack surface.

Enterprises Left Vulnerable

“Despite 82% of enterprises enabling BYOD to some capacity, many are still highly unprepared for the risks associated with unmanaged devices,” he said. “Fifty-one percent of the surveyed organizations don’t have any means of identifying vulnerabilities associated with malicious Wi-Fi on personal devices. Even more surprisingly, 49% are unsure or unable to detect whether malware has been downloaded in the last 12 months.”

Key findings from the Bitglass report:

  • BYOD is here to stay. Use of personal devices has helped businesses improve employee productivity and satisfaction, while also reducing costs. However, challenges associated with managing device access and mobile security remain.
  • Securing BYOD to prevent data loss/theft is a top concern. Respondents are most concerned about data leakage. Other apprehensions included users downloading unsafe apps or content, lost or stolen devices, and unauthorized access to company data and systems.
  • Enterprises are running blind when it comes to securing BYOD devices against modern security threats. For example, 22%  of…
