Mosyle closes $196 Million Series B funding round, announces its Apple Unified Platform
Mosyle is announcing the immediate availability of its Apple Unified Platform designed to fully integrate five critical applications into a single Apple-only solution for IT administrators. Mosyle is combining mobile device management, endpoint security, internet privacy and security, identity management, and application management into a single solution. With this announcement, Mosyle has also raised $196 million in Series B funding led by Insight Partners with participation from StepStone Group and all previous investors including Elephant and Album VC.
“Mosyle has been a pioneer in Apple device management. Its focus on product innovation, user-friendliness, and exceptional customer service have made it a top choice for businesses and schools large and small.” said Rebecca Liu Doyle, Insight Partners’ Managing Director. “With the launch of its Apple Unified Platform, Mosyle is one of the first companies to elegantly unify MDM with a broader suite of mobile security solutions.”
Mosyle’s Apple Unified Platform integrates five previously disparate features and functions into a single platform, including:
- Enhanced Device Management: Delivers full device management capabilitys for macOS, iOS, and tvOS, zero-touch deployment and automated ongoing management, support for shared devices, support for BYOD, and integrations with Google Workspace, Microsoft, Active Directory, and more.
- Endpoint Security: Mosyle endpoint security solution provides native antivirus and malware detection and will continuously scan, isolate, lock and wipe infected devices. It automates security and management of privileged accounts using Admin On Demand, which is the only and best privileged access management software for macOS.
- Internet Privacy & Security: This solution from Mosyle provides encrypted DNS functionality that automates web filtering and encryption on Apple devices. By focusing on the device instead of the network, customers get fast, secure, and reliable privacy and security in the office, at home, or a hotel
- Identity Management: Combines Single Sign-On functionality with multi-factor authentication to deliver increased security for all a company’s Apple devices. This solution ensures that every Mac is protected and simplifies the process for employees to use their work SSO accounts in order to authenticate Macs. Mosyle Identity Management supports Okta, Ping Identity, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and more.
- Application Management: Allows IT admins to remotely deploy, update and manage any compatible app on Apple devices regardless of if the app is available on the Mac or iOS App Store.
“Over the past year we’ve aggressively rolled out innovative security and management features that used MDM as a medium to extend protection to other layers of the device. Our new Apple Unified Platform is the direct result of this effort, and delivers on our vision of combining cloud-native architecture, automation, usability and best-in-class customer support for a radically new, fully-integrated approach to apple device management and security,” said Alcyr Araujo, founder and CEO at Mosyle. “This funding is validation of this vision and our belief that companies require more than traditional MDM in today’s hybrid work environment.”
