We have a BYOD estate that's fairly large, approx 3000 devices, mainly iOS.<br />
<br />
We enforce a minimum iOS version of 8 via our MAM software. That is, of the user isn't running iOS 8 or above, the corporate applications won't activate and run. So far, 70% of users have upgraded to 9.3.5<br />
<br />
When Trident was released, we advised users to upgrade to 9.3.5. To my knowledge, there weren't any devices running iOS 8 and higher that couldn't be upgraded.<br />
<br />
On Monday, we were planning to block anyone not running iOS 9.3.5 from running corporate applications.<br />
<br />
I'm wondering what we do with the news that iOS 10 is out on Tuesday.<br />
<br />
We could either <br />
<br />
1. Carry on with enforcing 9.3.5 on Monday. Anyone not running this version, will be forced to upgrade if they want to use corporate apps. <br />
<br />
2. Wait until Wednesday to enforce minimum OS version. This way, users will need to upgrade to ios10<br />
<br />
I'm thinking option 1 is better since not everyone will want to use ios10 necessarily , which is what option 2 forces<br />
<br />
Any comments?

Trident and Apple iOS upgrade

iOS is a mobile operating system developed by Apple; it is a derivative of the Mac OS X desktop operating system, with which it shares many (but not all) common frameworks and other components. These include Cocoa Touch, the Mach/Darwin/XNU kernel and code from the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD). Each iOS application runs in its own secure sandbox to prevent altering other applications, the operating system, or any other data.

Apple's early computers ran on a variety of operating systems, including a Pascal version and one based on CP/M, before releasing its ProDOS with the advent of its 16-bit computer. With the release of the Lisa, which had its own OS, Apple and computing entered the graphical age; it was followed by the Macintosh, which offered a series of "System" operating systems. Other Mac operating systems included PowerPC until Apple acquired NeXT and folded it into the Mac OS. Current operating systems for Apple devices are Mac OS-X and iOS.

Apple OS

iPad is an iOS-based line of tablet computers built around the device's multi-touch screen, including a virtual keyboard. The iPad includes built-in Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity on select models. An iPad can shoot video, take photos, play music, and perform Internet functions such as web-browsing and emailing. Other functions – games, reference, GPS navigation, social networking, etc. – can be enabled by downloading and installing apps.

The iPhone is a smartphone made by Apple Inc. It and the iPad, along with several other mobile devices from Apple, run on the iOS operating system, which has its own topic, as does the iPad for device-specific questions. Native iOS applications are written in Objective-C or in Swift using the Cocoa Touch frameworks or HTML5 compiled with the help of a package manager such as Adobe PhoneGap; a common IDE is Xcode.

The cyber security specialization covers the fundamental concepts underlying the construction of secure systems, from the hardware to the software to the human-computer interface, with the use of cryptography to secure interactions. Cyber security refers to the protection of personal or organizational information or information resources from unauthorized access, attacks, theft, or data damage. This includes controlling physical access to the hardware, as well as protecting against the harm that may come via network access, data and code injection, and due to malpractice by operators, whether intentional, accidental, or due to them being tricked into deviating from secure procedures.

Cyber Security

Operating system security (OS security) is the process of ensuring OS integrity, confidentiality and availability. OS security refers to specified steps or measures used to protect the OS from threats, viruses, worms, malware or remote hacker intrusions. OS security encompasses all preventive-control techniques, which safeguard any computer assets capable of being stolen, edited or deleted if OS security is compromised, including authentication, passwords and threats to systems and programs.
