macOS Sequoia | What’s New in Privacy and Security for Enterprise?
- macOS 15 Sequoia brings a fully standalone GUI version of password management app, which supports both passwords and passkeys and contains "Authenticator" functionality for generating verification codes.
- Gatekeeper and XProtect receive significant changes in the form of a new "xprotect" tool and tweaks to the Finder and spctl command.
- TCC has new policies in place for translucent windows, screen recording and more. macOS Sequoia also allows MAC addresses to rotate over time to avoid tracking by Wi-Fi network operators.
- The move from Apple IDs to Apple accounts aligns macOS closer to iOS and iPadOS. The long redundant periodic maintenance mechanism is no longer in use as Apple removes legacy code.
- SentinelOne announced support for macOS 15 Sequoia on launch day with extensive beta testing of macOS Agent version 24.2.2.
- Apple’s new version of macOS, Sequoia, releases with many security and privacy changes. The password app is a standalone application that supports passwords and passkeys.
- Screens recording apps will now need TCC permissions every month, and any application that requires local network access will require permission from the user.
- Rotating MAC addresses on Wi-Fi networks, easier iCloud use on virtual machines, and a change to the Gatekeeper’s underlying command line tool, spctl, are introduced.
- Apple has renamed Apple ID to Apple Account and deleted the redundant Periodic management mechanism, a legacy code on macOS.
- The take-up of Apple Silicon has made virtualization straightforward. Still, users will be required to sign in to iCloud, including Managed Accounts and will no longer be able to use legacy permissions for math notes and writing tools.
