Here’s the excerpt about version 3.1.1 of Apple Frames and the new passthrough mode:Īs I was researching this column for Weekly, I realized there was an obvious candidate for an output command I did not include in Apple Frames 3.1: a passthrough command to, well, pass framed images along as input for the next action of a shortcut.
I wrote about this as part of my Extension column in MacStories Weekly today, where I also covered the ability to run Apple Frames from the command line on macOS. With this output command for the Apple Frames API, you’ll be able to generate a framed image (from whatever source you like) and simply pass its result to the next action in a shortcut as a native image variable. I just released a small update to Apple Frames 3.1, which came out earlier this week, with a new output command: &passthrough.
The ‘Shortcut Result’ variable, used as an image variable in a shortcut that calls Apple Frames. And instead of creating more work for IT, Kolide provides instructions so users can get unblocked on their own. If a device isn’t compliant, users can’t log in to their cloud apps until they’ve fixed the problem. Kolide’s unique approach works with Okta to make device compliance part of the authentication process. Our premise is simple: if an employee’s device is out of compliance, it can’t access your apps. Kolide solves the device compliance element of Zero Trust for companies that use Okta. Things like unencrypted access credentials are out of their reach, not to mention Linux devices writ large. A malware-infected laptop running an outdated OS can’t exactly be “trusted.” And you can’t count on MDMs to achieve total compliance. Think about it: your identity provider can ensure that only known devices access your company’s apps, but just because you recognize a device, doesn’t mean it’s in a secure state.
Specifically, most security practitioners forget that device compliance is a crucial element of Zero Trust. The problem isn’t just that marketers have slapped the Zero Trust label on everything short of breakfast cereal–it’s that for all the hype, we don’t seem to be getting any safer.Īt the heart of Zero Trust is a good idea, but the way most companies execute that idea is incomplete. Right now, “Zero Trust” is in serious danger of becoming an empty buzzword.
