Unified Management for an At-Home Workforce
Microsoft has renamed and reshuffled its endpoint management platforms under the title Endpoint Manager, which encompasses Intune for cloud-based management of mobile and remote endpoints and Configuration Manager for managing onsite computers. Endpoint Manager offers a unified environment for protecting corporate information by managing onsite, mobile, and home-based endpoints.

Intune
Intune is part of Microsoft's Endpoint Management suite that also includes Microsoft Configuration Manager. Intune is a cloud service for managing and protecting mobile devices and software. Remote endpoint devices can be user owned or company owned. Network administrators managing the endpoint computers of at-home workers can utilize Intune to provision and authenticate apps on managed devices, push updates and certificates, set up rules for accessing data and resources, set passwords, establish VPN tunnels, determine how home-based workers share information, establish threat protection, ensure compliance, and wipe sensitive data from missing, stolen or decommissioned devices. Microsoft Intune works with Apple iOS, Google Android, Windows, and macOS/OS X devices. For details about Microsoft Intune and how Progent can assist you to use Microsoft's Endpoint Management to manage the endpoint computers of your at-home workers, refer to Intune teleworker device management experts.
