08 October 2025

Apple’s iOS 26 release introduces new features for connectivity and security, but what does this mean for how your enterprise manages devices, enforces policies, and supports employees?

Read on to find out.

Seamless MDM Migration to Microsoft Intune

One of the most significant updates in iOS 26 is built-in MDM Migration. Using Apple Business Manager, your IT admins can now transition devices from third-party solutions to Microsoft Intune with no user disruption.

This migration allows enterprises to:

  • Consolidate device management across platforms
  • Enforce consistent security policies
  • Reduce operational complexity

With VoicePlus’s Atrium, your business can further streamline refresh cycles and device staging. As a result, migrations are smoother during corporate device updates.

Smarter Call and Spam Management

Unwanted calls and spam remain productivity killers. iOS 26 introduces Call Screening, which automatically answers unknown calls and lets users approve or block based on context. Enhanced filtering tools also improve control over who can contact employees.

For businesses, this means fewer interruptions, stronger security against social engineering, and improved employee focus. Pairing these tools with VoicePlus’s device lifecycle management ensures all endpoints are configured correctly and remain fully supported.

Passkeys: Secure, Unphishable Sign-Ins

Passwords have long been a weak link, but iOS 26 expands the use of passkeys, replacing traditional logins with cryptographic keys resistant to phishing. Passkeys sync across Apple devices and even work with nearby non-Apple systems.

For you and your organisation, this means:

  • Stronger authentication
  • Faster sign-in processes
  • Fewer password reset requests

For IT teams, this reduces support workload while boosting compliance. If you need passkey authorisation to roll out uninterrupted and scaled, Atrium enables secure device configuration. On it, you’ll be able to roll out passkey authentication seamlessly.

iOS 26 supports the latest iPhone 17 range (including the new Air), plus the following Apple iPhone models:

  • iPhone 16
  • iPhone 15
  • iPhone 14
  • iPhone 13
