Kandji becomes Iru, unifying identity, security, and management for the AI era

Kandji has been a popular choice for Apple devices management for IT teams, and now it is entering a new chapter. The company has rebranded as Iru, an AI powered IT and security platform built for the modern workforce. With this rebrand, Iru moves beyond just having Apple management focus and into a broader IT vision that unifies identity, endpoint security, and compliance automation into one platform. Some of my favorite gear Abode Home Security System Abode is the best home security system and includes compatibility with HomeKit. Iru is positioning itself as the platform that brings together what IT and security teams have struggled to unify: identity, access, endpoint management, and compliance, all powered by AI. Iru ima to take that same design philosophy and apply it to the entire IT stack. Its new Context Model builds a live map across users, devices, apps, and policies, turning that context into actionable insights and audit ready evidence. The stack is the problem. With Iru, we collapse the stack and give IT & security teams time and control back,” said Adam Pettit, CEO of Iru. “What made Kandji work was elegance through abstraction and automation as a force multiplier. With Iru, we’ve translated that approach into a new platform for the AI era. We’re bringing identity & access, endpoint security & management, and compliance automation together in one AI-powered platform so lean teams can move faster with less overhead. Kandji’s rebrand to Iru also comes at a time when organizations are increasingly overwhelmed by tool sprawl. Nearly half of IT leaders report overlapping tools as a top challenge, and Iru’s approach is to collapse the stack. Instead of juggling multiple windows, agents, and data silos, Iru aims to unify everything under one pane of glass. The aim is to enable faster responses, fewer mistakes, and better alignment between IT and security teams. AI technology sits at the core of Iru’s platform. Iru AI applies automated intelligence across identity, endpoint, and compliance, turning data into usable insights so that can make IT smarter and more proactive. The six products launching with Iru are Workforce Identity, Endpoint Management, Endpoint Detection and Response, Vulnerability Management, Compliance Automation, and Trust Center. Each product is designed to integrate tightly with the others while remaining modular enough to use individually. If you’re already a Kandji customer, the new systems will feel very familar to you. For Apple focused organizations, Iru builds on Kandji’s original focus while adding support for Windows and Android while keeping Apple at the center of the admin experience. For existing Kandji customers, the transition will happen gradually, with enhanced capabilities available through the Iru platform.
