Any suggestions for MDM for Linux laptops? Most device management solutions I have seen are for either Windows or Mac, but is there one that is accepted by auditors and is not utter garbage UX wise for the user on Linux, where the user is most likely going to want and have full admin access to their own laptop? (I.e. since the user in question is a developer, I feel a strong aversion to not trusting them to do system administration on their own laptop.)
osquery is great and, while it does not tick precisely the same checkboxes as Jamf or Fleetsmith, it'll almost certainly suffice for evidence generation for compliance (osquery is in fact much better at producing "evidence" than most MDM tools are).
Just a shameless plug we've written thousands of queries to automate many compliance checks against major frameworks such as: NCSC-CE, CIS, SOC and ISO. https://www.zercurity.com/product/compliance/ It'll even collate all the evidence for you and help your employees improve their own cyber security posture based on your corporate policies.
