In today’s multi-device, work-from-anywhere world, unified endpoint management (UEM) is crucial for efficiency and security, providing a “single pane of glass” for managing mobile, desktop, and cloud environments. Microsoft Intune is a leading example of a UEM product that has continuously expanded to meet IT’s evolving needs.
What is Microsoft Intune?
Microsoft Intune is a suite of management tools that are the core of Microsoft’s UEM strategy as well as part of Microsoft 365’s broader technology stack. The company’s goal is to simplify managing mobile devices and applications, PCs, and other devices — and to reduce complexity and cost for IT teams.
For example, Intune’s mobile device management (MDM) capabilities are built to allow IT administrators to enforce security policies, remotely wipe devices, and manage configurations across heterogeneous platforms. Its mobile application management (MAM) features are designed to help businesses manage applications on both corporate and personal devices — enabling deployment, updates, and retirement of applications — and to protect corporate data within apps, preventing data leaks without disrupting user experience.
