First up is an additional emphasis on least privilege. Intune has slowly but surely been chipping away at the differential between on-premises control tools and cloud-based tools and recently Microsoft has announced several new features. Intune extends the functionality of some Active Directory features and that of the Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager to the Microsoft Azure cloud. What if you didn’t have such a domain to deal with, or were starting over fresh with a totally distributed network linked together only by cloud connections? You would probably turn to Microsoft’s Intune, a cloud-based unified endpoint management service for both corporate and bring-your-own-device technology. It does, however, require a traditional domain with an Active Directory deployment - many users already have an Active Directory (AD) and will have an AD domain for many years into the future. For many years, the Group Policy feature of Microsoft’s Windows has been the go-to solution for controlling workstations, providing deployment, and in general, making a network manageable by information professionals.
