Jamf completes acquisition of ZecOps, extending its mobile security capabilities by adding advanced detections and incident response for iOS
November 17 2022 - 9:15AM
Jamf (NASDAQ: JAMF), the standard in Apple Enterprise Management,
today announced it has completed the acquisition of ZecOps, a
leader in mobile detection and response.
This acquisition uniquely positions Jamf to help IT
and security teams strengthen their organization’s mobile security
posture, accelerate mobile security investigations from weeks to
minutes, leverage known indicators of compromise (IOC) at-scale,
and identify sophisticated 0 or 1 click attacks on a much deeper
scale.
“ZecOps’ market-leading mobile detection and response
capabilities are a great fit for the Jamf platform,” said Dean
Hager, CEO, Jamf. “ZecOps’ ability to thoroughly detect and
investigate threats that target mobile users further propels our
goal of keeping employees productive and secure no matter what
device they use for work.”
Mobile devices now account for 59% of global website traffic,
and according to the 2022 Verizon Mobile Security Index, close to
half (45%) of companies said that they have suffered a compromise
involving a mobile device in the past 12 months.ZecOps will bring
important capabilities to the Jamf platform to help address the
growing trend of targeted mobile attacks. Jamf offers robust
management and mobile security capabilities for iOS devices;
however, access to deeper insights into potential security exploits
is technically challenging and requires physical access to the
device, which is difficult in a remote work environment. ZecOps is
a robust, unparalleled solution that provides the deepest layer of
insight and assurance for security-conscious customers with
high-value targets that need something more. ZecOps provides the
same level of visibility currently available for macOS through Jamf
Protect but for iOS, making it capable of detecting the kinds of
sophisticated mobile threats that Apple’s Lockdown mode aims to
prevent.
About JamfJamf’s purpose is to simplify work by
helping organizations manage and secure an Apple experience that
end users love and organizations trust. Jamf is the only company in
the world that provides a complete management and security solution
