Unified Management for an At-Home Workforce
Microsoft has renamed and rebundled its endpoint management products under the name Endpoint Manager, which encompasses Intune for cloud-based management of remote endpoints and Configuration Manager for managing local computers. Endpoint Manager offers a centralized platform for protecting corporate information by controlling local, mobile, and at-home endpoints.

Microsoft Intune
Intune is part of Microsoft's Endpoint Management family that also features Configuration Manager. Intune is a cloud service for managing and protecting mobile computers and applications. Managed endpoint devices can be user owned or company owned. IT administrators managing the enrolled endpoint computers of teleworkers can use Intune to deploy and validate applications on managed devices, push updates and certificates, configure rules for permission to access data and resources, manage passwords, establish VPN connections, determine how teleworkers share information, set up threat protection, ensure compliance, and delete sensitive information from missing, stolen or decommissioned endpoint devices. Intune can be used with Apple iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS endpoints.
