What do you do when you want to take your Apple genius to the next level?

Take a ride down to Nashville and get certified at JNUC.

Bit by Bit's very own Apple Systems Engineer Christian Cervegnano did just that and more at last month's JAMF Nation User Conference, a three-day event that brings together Apple IT professionals from around the world to learn about managing and securing Apple devices.

While in Music City, Christian attended presentations and educational sessions offered at the conference alongside Apple IT, users and InfoSec leaders to discover new and better ways to manage and secure Apple devices.

Christian also updated his JAMF Certification, scoring a 98% on the exam. (What happened to the other 2 points?)

Just what is JAMF? It is the software Bit by Bit uses to manage Apple devices and maintain a detailed inventory of your Apple devices. We use JAMF to deploy software, enforce security settings, and update MacOS and Applications - all in one place. This allows us to proactively maintain the health of Apple systems and troubleshoot software, computers, and hard drives.

The easiest way to keep your Mac safe is to run an OS version supported by Apple, and Apple has signaled that new OS versions will be prioritized for security updates.

Latest MacOS & iOS versions

As of this post, the latest supported versions of Apple software for the Mac, iPad, and iPhone are:

  • MacOS Sequoia 15.01
  • MacOS Sonoma 14.7
  • MacOS Ventura 13.7
  • iOS 18.01 for iPhone and iPad

MacOS 15, named Sequoia, was only released in the last month and we don’t recommend upgrading your Mac yet, since your applications may not be compatible. Your Mac should have MacOS Sonoma or Ventura as older OS versions will no longer be updated by Apple.

Congrats, Christian! And, if you'd like to connect, you can contact him at info@bitxbit.com Ask him about upgrading your Mac, testing your applications with Sequoia, or if you want to find out if you can upgrade an existing Mac from an older OS.
