Introduction
Microsoft Intune allows administrators to manage and secure devices across different platforms, including Windows, macOS, iOS, Android and Linux. The available management actions can vary depending on the device platform and configuration.
Once a device is enrolled in Intune, administrators can do more than simply monitor its status. They can perform remote actions to manage devices, troubleshoot issues and maintain organisational security.
For instance, an employee may need a laptop restarted, a device may require a security scan, or company data may need to be removed when a device is reassigned.
