To protect themselves, enterprises must implement multi-layered, defense-in-depth protections, harden their endpoints, and use integrated management and security tools to ensure visibility across all potential attack vectors.
More than the OS
Part of this involves the operating system, of course, and Apple has always managed to provide that. (We don’t know whether the Luxshare systems that were attacked involved Macs, but I’m willing to bet they were not.)
At a system level, Apple continues to invest in security across its systems, with tools like Lockdown Mode, Threat notifications, XProtect, Gatekeeper, and regular system patches helping keep its ecosystem secure. But the claimed attack against a key Apple business partner illustrates that relying solely on operating system safety isn’t enough; it’s vitally important that any company put protections in place.
