Unified Management for Teleworkers
Microsoft has rebranded and reshuffled its endpoint management platforms under the title Endpoint Manager, which includes Intune for cloud management of remote endpoints and Configuration Manager for managing on-premises computers. Endpoint Manager features a unified platform for protecting corporate information by controlling local, mobile, and at-home endpoint devices.

Microsoft Intune
Intune is part of Microsoft's Endpoint Management suite that also features Microsoft Configuration Manager. Intune is a cloud service for managing and protecting mobile computers and applications. Managed endpoint computers can be user owned or company owned. Network administrators managing the enrolled endpoint devices of telecommuters can use Intune to provision and validate applications on devices, push patches and certificates, set up policies for permission to access data and networks, manage passwords, create VPN tunnels, determine how teleworkers share information, set up threat protection, verify security compliance, and wipe sensitive information from missing, stolen or deactivated devices. Microsoft Intune works with Apple iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS/OS X devices.
