Hardened Apple, without the friction.
Security controls designed around macOS and iOS architecture - protection your team never has to work around.
Identity & Access
Single sign-on, MFA and conditional access wired into macOS login so security policy follows the user, not the device.
Endpoint Protection
Mac-native detection and response layered over XProtect and Gatekeeper, with automated remediation policies.
Encryption & Patching
Enforced FileVault with escrowed recovery keys, plus managed OS and third-party app updates on a controlled schedule.
Compliance Reporting
Evidence-ready reporting for insurance questionnaires, client security reviews and Canadian data-residency requirements.
Apple-specific controls your auditor will recognize.
Every environment we run is built on Apple's own management and security frameworks, then mapped to the standards your clients and insurers ask about.
Apple MDM framework
Supervised enrollment via Apple Business Manager and ADE - fully supported, upgrade-safe management.
FileVault & escrow
Full-disk encryption enforced on every Mac, with recovery keys escrowed and access logged.
CIS & NIST baselines
Hardening mapped to CIS and NIST macOS Benchmarks through the macOS Security Compliance Project.
SSO, MFA & least privilege
Identity-first access with conditional policies and no shared local admin accounts.
Canadian data residency
Canadian regions selected wherever vendors offer them, documented per system.
Audit-ready evidence
Reporting packaged for SOC 2 and PIPEDA reviews, insurance forms and client security questionnaires.
Common questions
The objections we hear most from Canadian teams standardizing on Apple.
Ask us something elseDo you use Apple-approved device management?+
Yes. We manage Macs, iPhones and iPads through Apple's official MDM framework with Apple Business Manager and Automated Device Enrollment, so devices are supervised the way Apple intends.
How quickly do you support new macOS and iOS releases?+
We test each beta cycle and hold or release updates on a controlled schedule. Rapid Security Responses can be pushed within hours; feature releases are staged after we validate your critical apps.
Which security standards do you align to?+
Our macOS baselines follow the CIS Benchmarks for macOS and NIST 800-53 control mappings via the macOS Security Compliance Project, and we support evidence gathering for SOC 2 and PIPEDA reviews.
Is our data staying in Canada?+
Where a vendor offers Canadian regions we deploy there, and we document data residency for every tool in your stack so you can answer client and insurer questionnaires with confidence.
Can you manage Windows and Macs together?+
Yes. Most of our clients are mixed environments. We run a single identity layer with SSO and MFA across both, with platform-appropriate management on each side.
What happens to a device when someone leaves?+
Offboarding is automated: accounts are disabled, sessions revoked, the device is remotely locked or wiped, and the FileVault recovery key and asset record are retained for audit.
Do we lose admin control of our own devices?+
Never. Your Apple Business Manager and identity tenants are owned by you. If you ever leave, you keep the tenants, the documentation and the enrollment records.
