What is Microsoft Intune?
Microsoft Intune is an endpoint management solution in the cloud provided by Microsoft to help organizations manage and secure devices, apps, and user access.

Intune integrates with Microsoft 365 and Entra ID (formerly known as Azure AD) and security tools (e.g., Microsoft Defender) and gets tailored for a modern work style that facilitates flexibility and security within an organization in managing devices and applications.

10 Microsoft Intune Features that Can Change the World of IT Management
These strong Microsoft Intune features enable you to simplify device control and promote security and productivity no matter where your users have been, from supporting a remote workforce to implementing BYOD policies.
Remotely manage devices from anywhere
Intune will help you manage every device in your organization through Windows, MacOS, Android, and iOS, constituting a single view. IT administrators can monitor compliance, force updates, or wipe devices remotely without going to the device’s physical location.
Best for hybrid and remote workforces.
Deploy apps seamlessly
Deploy Microsoft 365 Apps and line-of-business apps directly to your user’s devices so that they have everything needed to be productive with no need for manual installation.
- Schedule updates
- Enforce app protection policies
- Control the devices that will access the apps
Implement consistent security policies across your organization
Using Intune allows you to quickly implement password requirements, encryption, antivirus settings, and intune compliance policies. You can also implement security policies that deny access to corporate resources based on the device’s health and security settings.
Diminish risk by ensuring that only secure devices can access company data!
Manage apps on personal devices(BYOD)
While it’s a personal device, Intune allows you to manage and protect corporate applications through Mobile Application Management (MAM).
- Separate work data from personal data
- Prevent copy/paste and data sharing between applications
- Wipe corporate data without impacting personal data
Apply Conditional Access with Azure AD Integration
When utilizing Azure Active Directory (now Entra ID) for integration along with your Intune implementation, you can apply conditional access. For example, you could limit who can access Teams, SharePoint, or Outlook to only allow devices that are compliant and have MFA applied.

With Intune, we support self-service enrollment on all major platforms so you can reduce onboarding times and the overall workload for IT administrators.

Device profiles are enforced by user roles or device groups so that setup remains consistent and saves time in setting up devices while avoiding errors during the process.
