Thanks Matthew. Another person also pointed out that Apple is indeed a
DoD-approved source for updates (I should have seen that in the STIG pdf). Auto
updates have been our method anyway, so we'll just continue doing that. I
appreciate the responses.

In the STIG, just after that, it specifies that “Apple is considered a
DoD-approved source.” I’m not sure how you find out what other sources are
approved, but maybe it’s just easier to set up auto updates from Apple since
they are an approved source?
