Jamf Protect's endpoint and network security capabilities allow you to create different policies for different device groups. You can configure groups from the Device Management screen in Jamf Security Cloud under Devices > Manage:

  • Add groups by clicking More Actions.

  • Categorize users by either dragging and dropping them into your groups, by choosing as group for a specific Activation Profile, or by using UEM Connect group mapping.

You can set up specific security policies for different groups of users. You can use the Group Level drop-down menu to switch between your base policy for your portal and the specific groups.

If you have selected a specific group, you can create a specific policy that applies only to those users in the group.

Some settings are not available at Group level and can only be defined at the OU level. These include the following settings:

  • Admin Summary emails

  • Delayed end-user notifications (for Out-of-Date OS)

  • Ignored

  • Exceptions

  • Trusted Root Certificates
