Jamf Launches Beacon by Jamf Threat Labs

New premium threat hunting service, delivered by a best-in-class threat analysis team, helps organizations identify and investigate threats impacting macOS environments

MINNEAPOLIS, July 1, 2026 - Jamf, the standard in managing and securing Apple at work, today announced the general availability of Beacon by Jamf Threat Labs, a new premium threat hunting service bridging a critical gap for security teams through providing dedicated, proactive detection and deep-dive analysis of threats engineered specifically for macOS environments.

As organizations continue to expand their Apple footprint, macOS devices have become prime targets for sophisticated threat actors. Yet, many security teams lack the specialized resources needed to effectively monitor and investigate threats targeting macOS. Beacon puts Jamf Threat Labs' industry-leading research and detection engineers directly into customer environments, delivering threat hunting, investigation, and reporting tailored for Apple environments.

"Enterprise Mac adoption has grown at a rapid pace, and threat actors have taken notice," said Jaron Bradley, Director of Threat Labs at Jamf. "Beacon extends Apple-focused threat hunting directly to customers, helping them strengthen security operations and better understand activity across their Mac environments."

Beacon by Jamf Threat Labs enhances an enterprise's security posture through three core pillars:

• Apple-focused threat hunting for macOS environments: Organizations gain access to dedicated macOS threat hunters with deep knowledge of Apple's security frameworks, threat actor techniques and macOS-specific attack vectors. Combined with Jamftelemetry, the service delivers threat hunting and reporting tailored specifically for Apple environments.
• Deep intelligence powered by Apple-native telemetry: Beacon by Jamf Threat Labs leverages Jamf's Mac telemetry, built on Apple's Endpoint Security API. This telemetry gives Jamf Threat Labs unprecedented visibility to hunt for Apple-specific attack techniques, anomalous activity and suspicious behaviors across Mac environments. Security teams receive prioritized investigations and reporting that help reduce attacker dwell time and improve response to threats impacting macOS devices.
• Actionable guidance while maintaining operational control: When a threat is uncovered, Jamf Threat Labs will deliver a comprehensive investigation report complete with actionable remediation recommendations, while internal IT and security teams retaincomplete ownership and operational control over all containment and policy decisions.

Available as an add-on service for Jamf for Mac and Jamf for Mac Hi-Ed customers through a professional services engagement, Beacon extends the capabilities and expertise of Jamf Threat Labs directly into customer environments, helping organizations strengthen security across their Apple ecosystem.
