We will be deploying Jamf Pro across the School of Medicine. Due to changes in the MacOS architecture, BigFix is no longer able to perform the tasks needed by Stanford University and the School of Medicine. Jamf will be administered by the same Stanford teams administering BigFix. BigFix is administered by the Information Security Office in collaboration with IT organizations across the University.

Stanford University has been using IBM BigFix to deploy patches and updates to Windows and MacOS computers for many years. Jamf Pro was chosen by the University to replace BigFix on all University and School of Medicine Macs. We provide computing support for SHC and SoM users. Technology & Digital Solutions (TDS) is the team formed when SoM IRT was unified with Stanford Health Care's IT department. If you would like to learn more about Jamf Pro, please visit Who is TDS? This includes deploying and maintaining software, responding to security threats, distributing settings, and analyzing inventory data. With Jamf Pro, TDS and University IT Technicians proactively manage the entire lifecycle of all Apple devices. Jamf Pro, developed by Jamf, is a comprehensive management system for Apple macOS computers and iOS devices.
