CENTRIFY MAC MANAGEMENT

Centrify provides a suite of tools to manage Macs with existing Active Directory infrastructure and mobility capabilities from the Centrify Identity Platform.

Centrify delivers Zero Trust Security through the power of Next-Gen Access. Centrify verifies every user, validates their devices, and limits access and privilege.

MAC AND MOBILE MANAGEMENT FOR COMPLEX IT

As more employees rely on mobile devices and Macs for work, companies need to authorise and manage these devices with consistency. Smart Mac and mobile management — including application provisioning, automated device configuration, and self-service enrolment — reduces user frustration, lowers help-desk calls, and ensures uniform security.

Comprehensive management suite

Centrify Endpoint Services centralises authentication, administration and Group Policy management of end-users’ Macs and mobile devices within Active Directory, enabling IT to provide end- users their platform of choice without sacrificing efficiency or security.

Manage Macs & mobile like PCs

Centrify gives organisations the ability to securely deploy Apple Macs and mobile devices side-by-side with PCs, using an on-premises Microsoft Active Directory- and/or cloud-based identity and policy management infrastructure.

Local admin password management

With Local Administrator Password Management (LAPM) for Mac, Centrify enables organisations to minimise and centrally control access to Mac administrative accounts, just like they do for Windows and Linux endpoints, servers and network devices.

Mac application management

Now, IT can automatically install and update applications silently as soon as the user enrolls their Mac, or when the user is added to a role in which the applications are assigned. Centrify Endpoint Services provides a rich enterprise app store for self service installations of approved applications without giving users administrative rights they do not need.

Mobile device security management

Centrify Endpoint Services comes standard with integrated mobile security management that delivers the controls IT needs and the simplicity users require. The solution provides a single sign-on and one-click access to apps and other enterprise resources — whether accessing from a mobile device or Mac computer.

Cloud architecture

Centrify also includes a cloud-based option for managing Macs that are remote and/or not connected to the corporate network. In order to support these remote Macs, Centrify supports Apple’s Configuration Profile Reference and Mobile Device Management Protocol for both Mac and mobile device management.
