Microsoft Intune: Unified Endpoint Management Overview

Microsoft Intune - Microsoft’s cloud-based endpoint management system.

Used to Manage:

Devices: Windows, macOS, iOS/iPadOS, Android

Apps: deployment, updates, and compliance

Security: policies, encryption, conditional access, etc.

Managing devices within an organisation can be a significant challenge. 

Licenses:
✅ Microsoft Intune Suite

✅ Microsoft Intune Plan 1

✅ Microsoft 365 E3 / A3 / G3

✅ Microsoft 365 E5 / A5 / G5

✅ Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS) E3

✅ Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS) E5

✅ Microsoft 365 Business Premium

That’s where Intune comes in; it helps keep devices secure, up-to-date, and easy to use. 🚀

✨ Intune Basics

 1️⃣ Device Enrollment: Register devices so IT can manage them (apps, Wi-Fi, email setup).

 2️⃣ Compliance Policies: Company rules (like password required 🔒, antivirus on 🛡️).

 3️⃣ Configuration Profiles: Pre-set settings pushed automatically (Wi-Fi 📶, VPN 🔑, email 📧).

More 👉 MDM & MAM

✨ Autopilot

 💻 Imagine getting a brand-new laptop 📦 → you turn it on → it sets itself up with company apps, settings, and policies automatically. That’s Autopilot.

✨ Autopatch

 🛠️ Keeping devices updated is critical for security.

 Autopatch makes sure Windows, Microsoft 365 apps, and Edge stay updated automatically — without IT having to do manual patching.

📌 Takeaway:

 Intune, Autopilot & Autopatch = secure devices, less manual work, and a smoother experience for both IT teams and employees.
