What is Swif?

Swif is a device management and security platform designed for organisations that need to monitor and control endpoints across multiple operating systems while maintaining compliance. It combines mobile device management (MDM) with detection of unauthorised software and AI tool usage, allowing IT teams to see what's running on their fleet in real time. The platform enforces security policies and generates audit reports automatically, reducing the manual work required for compliance checks. It works across macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, iPadOS, and Android, making it suitable for organisations with mixed device environments.
