Episode 388: Behind the Masque of Network Relays with Matt Vlasach

Who loves VPNs? Folks in the network security team, please put your hands down - we weren’t asking you… Wouldn’t it be great if there was a way that we could offer privacy and protection out there in that wretched hive of scum and villainy we call the internet? Wouldn’t it be even better if it was baked into the operating system so each vendor wasn’t just making things up as they go? Apple announced iCloud private relay in 2021, and in 2023 we got what I guess you could call the “Enterprise version” - Network Relays. Today we have Matt Vlasach here to talk about why Network Relays are awesome and how we can use them to make Apple devices more secure and useable Hosts: Tom Bridge - @tbridge@theinternet.social Marcus Ransom - @marcusransom Guests: Matt Vlasach - LinkedIn Links: MASQUE Protocol IETF https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-schinazi-masque-02.html WWDC 2023 - Protect App Traffic with Network Relays https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2023/10002 https://reg.jnuc.jamf.com/flow/jamf/jnuc2024/home24/page/jnuc24sessioncatalog https://blog.cloudflare.com/masque-building-a-new-protocol-into-cloudflare-warp/ Sponsors: Kandji 1Password Watchman Monitoring If you're interested in sponsoring the Mac Admins Podcast, please email podcast@macadmins.org for more information.
