Unified Management for Remote Workers
Microsoft has renamed and rebundled its endpoint management platforms under the name Microsoft Endpoint Manager, which encompasses Intune for cloud management of remote endpoints and Configuration Manager for managing local computers. Endpoint Manager provides a unified platform for protecting critical data by controlling onsite, mobile, and home-based endpoint devices.
Intune
Intune is a component of Microsoft's Endpoint Management family that also includes Microsoft Configuration Manager. Intune is a cloud service for managing and protecting remote devices and software. Remote endpoint devices can be personally owned or business owned. Network administrators managing the enrolled endpoint computers of at-home workers can utilize Intune to provision and authenticate applications on devices, push patches and certificates, set up policies for permission to access information and networks, set passwords, create VPN connections, determine how home-based workers share data, set up threat defense, ensure compliance, and erase corporate information from missing, stolen or deactivated endpoint devices. Intune works with iOS/iPadOS, Google Android, Windows, and macOS endpoints. For information about Intune and how Progent can help your company to use this platform to manage the endpoint devices of your teleworkers, see Intune mobile endpoint management consultants.
