Endpoint Security Management
Why Use Microsoft Intune?
With so much information now stored and accessed from mobile devices, they are coming under increasing threat from cybercriminals. Despite unmanaged mobile devices representing a huge security risk, many organisations have no comprehension of what devices are accessing key resources such as email and document stores.
Using Microsoft Intune, any device (including personal devices) that accesses an organisation’s resources can be managed and secured. This means organisations can take control of how their data is accessed. Equally, lost devices no longer pose a GDPR or security risk as information can be wiped from them remotely.
Microsoft Intune Deployment
Our Microsoft Intune Services
Akita can support organisations at all stages of an Intune deployment. This can include any or all of the below:
- Gap Analysis: We’ll conduct a thorough security review of Microsoft cloud systems to pinpoint potential vulnerabilities and establish the scope for the upcoming enhancements.
- Strategic Planning: We’ll hold discussions with stakeholders to evaluate the results of the security audit, devise a strategic approach, and gain consensus on the deployment strategy.
- Policy Consolidation: Based on the agreed strategy, Akita will refine Conditional Access policies to construct a strong security framework that supports – rather than impedes – staff productivity. This includes the introduction of new policies to monitor high-risk activities, the enforcement of Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), the application of country-specific access restrictions, and stringent checks for device compliance.
- Intune Deployment: We’ll implement new compliance and Microsoft account management policies, focusing particularly on users with administrative privileges. This will also encompass antivirus and firewall settings and the configuration of application control policies to prevent data exfiltration.
- Defender Rollout: Where required, we’ll also undertake a comprehensive rollout of Defender for Endpoint across all devices to ensure robust malware protection and secure device management.
- Enhanced Control Measures: Additionally, we can establish bespoke controls to limit access to administrative portals solely to authorised administrators, effectively preventing access by any non-accredited personnel.

What Are The Features of Microsoft Intune For Security?

location or sign-on type. - Encrypts organisational data, but not other information: perfect for users accessing data from their personal devices
- Organisational data can be wiped remotely from a device at any time without wiping the entire device.
- Self-service portal can be set up for users to enrol their own devices and install corporate applications across multiple mobile
platforms. - Deploy certificates, WiFi setups, VPN setups and email profiles automatically once a device is enrolled.
- Facilitates limited-use tablets (designed for specific tasks such as reception sign-ins, product catalogues etc.). In limited-use mode,
