The Past, Present and Future of Endpoint Management Solutions


Endpoint management is a simple concept that’s become more complex over time. Initially, it was about provisioning and managing the computers and devices that people use in your organization in the bring your own device (BYOD) and mobile computing era. Then the Internet of Things (IoT) made things far more complex. And now perimeter security is being replaced by zero trust. The evolution of endpoint management is one of tackling increasing complexity. 

In today’s complex world, you need a great unified endpoint management (UEM) solution.

Under the UEM umbrella, mobile device management (MDM) and enterprise mobility management (EMM) enable UEM for mobile and IoT devices, which is really the core of UEM in a remote and hybrid world. 

This didn’t use to be the case. In the past, UEM, MDM and EMM were all separate worlds of tools, practices and policies. But in recent years they’re merging into a single area in the UEM category. 

Of course, zero trust is a methodology, architecture and even a mindset — not a technology or specific set of tools. But UEM is strongly associated with zero trust because that approach calls for managing many aspects of all devices in the organization at a massive scale.

Here Comes the Zero Trust Imperative

It’s a cliche to suggest that zero trust replaces perimeter security, but this is somewhat misleading on two counts. First, it’s not really about trust, per se. You may ‘trust’ any specific employee, or their device, but they still don’t get access without proper authentication. A perimeter still exists, and that perimeter is every endpoint. In other words, for attackers, every endpoint is a door. The zero trust approach makes sure every door stays locked. The person knocking on that door has to prove they are an authorized user using authorized software on an approved device. The security dimension of UEM is, in essence, the process of watching those doors at scale. 

That idea is conceptually simple. But watching the door really means making sure the lock is up to date and configured correctly, that the activity around that door looks normal, that any abnormal activity is investigated and that…

Researcher Details Three Zero-Day Exploits Still Present In iOS 15


Usually software updates come with things like bug fixes and security patches. Unfortunately for iOS 15, it seems that Apple has left in three zero-day exploits despite being warned in advance. This is according to a post by an anonymous security researcher and shared and verified by Kosta Eleftheriou.

According to the post, “I’ve reported four 0-day vulnerabilities this year between March 10 and May 4, as of now three of them are still present in the latest iOS version (15.0) and one was fixed in 14.7, but Apple decided to cover it up and not list it on the security content page.” 

They add, “When I confronted them, they apologized, assured me it happened due to a processing issue and promised to list it on the security content page of the next update. There were three releases since then and they broke their promise each time.” 

The researcher then gave Apple the courtesy by giving them an opportunity to respond and provide an explanation, if not they would make the information public, which obviously they haven’t which is why those vulnerabilities have since been disclosed.

These vulnerabilities are a bit technical but they are explained on the researcher’s blog, so if you’re curious to learn more you can check it out. Apple has yet to respond to the post, but given that these exploits have been made public and are potentially exploitable by hackers who now know about them, hopefully they’ll be patching them ASAP.
