Interested in previous release notes? See last year's feature releases: [Release Notes 2025](https://jumpcloud.com/support/release-notes-2025). Alternately, see our [List of Bug Fix Reports](https://jumpcloud.com/support/list-of-bug-fix-reports) or [List of JumpCloud Agent Release Notes](https://jumpcloud.com/support/list-of-jumpcloud-agent-release-notes), updated weekly. ## July ### July 31st, 2026 **`New:`** **macOS User-Centric MDM Policies** **Feature:** Devices JumpCloud has introduced macOS user-centric Mobile Device Management (MDM) policies. JumpCloud detects the active logged-in Mac User and delivers personalized policies. You can assign policies to user groups so each person on a shared Mac receives their own certificates, Wi-Fi profiles, and VPN configurations instead of one device-level configuration for every User. You can also pair user-level SCEP Profiles and WiFi Configuration policies with your JumpCloud Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) servers for certificate-based Wi-Fi. User-centric policies tie certificates and Wi-Fi profiles to the verified logged-in Mac User, so shared workstations can enforce per-user network access instead of one device-level Wi-Fi configuration for every User. **Learn More** - [Get Started: Policies](https://jumpcloud.com/support/get-started-policies) - [Create a User-Level macOS SCEP Profiles Policy](https://jumpcloud.com/support/create-a-user-level-macos-scep-profiles-policy#creating-the-policy) - [Create a User-Level macOS WiFi Configuration Policy](https://jumpcloud.com/support/create-a-user-level-macos-wifi-configuration-policy-2) - [Create a User-Level macOS VPN Policy](https://jumpcloud.com/support/create-a-user-level-macos-vpn-policy) - [Create a User Level macOS Install Certificate Policy](https://jumpcloud.com/support/create-a-user-level-macos-install-certificate-policy) * * * **`New:`** SMS MFA Configuration **Feature:** Multi-Factor Authentication We’ve introduced SMS-based Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), allowing you to leverage Twilio Verify via a Bring Your Own Telephony (BYOT) architecture.
