Most Intune projects fail quietly after deployment — not because the configuration is wrong, but because nobody builds an operational rhythm to keep it healthy. This final part fixes that.

A configured device is not a hardened device. This part layers Microsoft's pre-built security baselines on top of your configuration profiles, connects Defender for Business, and starts Attack Surface Reduction in Audit mode.

Manual software installs don't scale. This part covers deploying Microsoft 365 Apps, packaging Win32 apps with IntuneWinAppUtil, and making the Company Portal the self-service front door for your users.

Compliance tells Intune whether a device is healthy. Configuration profiles tell the device how to behave. This part deploys five production-ready profiles — BitLocker, WHfB, OneDrive KFM, Edge hardening, and Update rings.

An enrolled device is not a trusted device — not until it meets your compliance baseline. This part builds the compliance policy and Conditional Access rules that enforce it, safely.

Before you configure compliance or deploy software, you need the right licence, the right groups, and a device that successfully talks to Intune. This first part gets you there from a blank tenant.

The Enterprise App Catalog in Intune reduces the manual work behind common Win32 app deployment. This article explains how EAM works, how guided updates and supersedence behave, where it fits into Autopilot, and the limits you need to know before adopting it at scale.

Microsoft Cloud PKI in Intune replaces the traditional NDES, on-prem CA dependency, and Intune Certificate Connector path for SCEP delivery. This guide explains how to build the CA hierarchy, deploy trust and SCEP profiles, and use cloud-managed certificates for Wi-Fi and VPN authentication.
