Global virtual innovation summit brings together IT professionals and MSPs for expert insights and product innovation updates, including FIPS 140-3 validated cryptography and native Apple MDM for Datto RMM
Miami, FL - September 2, 2026 - Kaseya, the leading global provider of AI-powered cybersecurity and IT management software, today welcomed thousands of managed service providers (MSPs) and IT professionals to Kaseya Connect Edge, the company's virtual innovation summit. The event focused on the technologies and strategies shaping the future of IT, from AI and cyber resilience to compliance, automation and operational efficiency.
Among the announcements unveiled at Connect Edge were two significant enhancements to Datto RMM designed to help MSPs and IT teams strengthen compliance, simplify endpoint management and expand opportunities in regulated and Apple-centric environments.
FIPS 140-3 Validated Cryptography: Government-Grade Compliance, Built In
As governments and regulated industries around the world transition toward the FIPS 140-3 requirements, many RMM platforms are not yet equipped to support the new standard. This gap has already locked MSPs and IT teams out of deals with government, healthcare, finance and defense. Kaseya is closing this gap by adding FIPS 140-3 validated cryptography to Datto RMM, at no additional cost, starting in October 2026. Built on an international standard, NIST-validated cryptographic module, the capability covers the platform's core communication channels and is controlled through a single account-wide toggle, off by default, giving MSPs and IT teams a way to meet the new standard on their own timeline.
Because the cryptography is built on a NIST-validated module rather than a vendor's self-described claim of strong encryption, organizations get independently certified assurance. Additionally, the update requires no trade-off in capability: patching, automation, monitoring and remote control all remain fully intact, with audit-ready logging built in from day one to reduce audit and legal exposure.
"As regulatory requirements continue to evolve, MSPs and IT teams shouldn't have to choose between compliance and operational efficiency," said Pratik Wadher, Chief Technology Officer at Kaseya. "At Kaseya, we're making it easier for organizations to pursue opportunities in highly regulated industries while continuing to leverage the automation, visibility and security capabilities they rely on every day. This is yet another example of how Kaseya is removing barriers and helping customers stay ahead of what's next."
Datto RMM Adds Native Apple MDM: One Platform for Every Endpoint
MSPs and IT teams have long managed mobile devices through separate Mobile Device Management (MDM) tools, leading to extra costs, fragmented visibility, and gaps in an otherwise unified environment.
Starting in early October 2026, Datto RMM will add native Apple MDM to provide a centralized view for MSPs and IT teams, with the ability to enroll, configure, and manage iOS, iPadOS, and macOS devices directly within their existing platform.
Technicians will now be able to enroll devices individually or in bulk through Apple Business Manager, apply centralized security and compliance policies, deploy apps, and take remote action all without leaving the platform. Additionally, mobile devices will appear alongside other endpoints in existing dashboards, filters, and compliance reports, giving teams complete visibility.
