  • Flexibility: Manage both company-owned and personal (BYOD) devices. Intune allows IT teams to secure and manage devices regardless of ownership, providing policies that can differentiate between corporate data and personal data. This approach ensures users can work on their own devices without compromising company security.
  • Security: Protect corporate data with robust policies and integrations. Intune integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint and Azure AD to enforce conditional access and threat protection. Policies like encryption, app protection, and remote wipe help keep sensitive data secure, even on compromised devices.

Features like Windows Autopilot and automatic app deployment streamline the setup process, reducing manual effort for IT teams. This automation ensures devices are ready for use quickly and remain up-to-date with minimal intervention.
