Yes, there is a new way to create and control processes in macOS. In the session titled "What’s new in device management" from WWDC 2024, it was mentioned that launch deconfiguration files can now be installed using the background task services configuration. This provides an easy way for IT to create and control background tasks, which are stored in a secure and tamper-resistant location. This enhancement allows for better management of executable files and service configuration files, giving admins more control over background tasks on macOS.
