Unified Management for At-Home Workers
Microsoft has rebranded and reshuffled its endpoint management products under the title Microsoft Endpoint Manager, which includes Intune for cloud management of remote endpoints and Configuration Manager for managing local endpoints. Endpoint Manager offers a unified platform for protecting corporate data by managing on-premises, mobile, and at-home endpoint devices.

Intune
Intune is a component of Microsoft's Endpoint Management suite that also features Microsoft Configuration Manager. Intune is a cloud-based service for managing and securing mobile computers and applications. Remote endpoint computers can be personally owned or business owned. IT admins managing the endpoint devices of teleworkers can utilize Intune to provision and validate applications on devices, push updates and certificates, set up rules for accessing information and networks, manage passwords, establish VPN connections, determine how home-based workers share data, establish threat protection, ensure security compliance, and erase corporate information from lost, stolen or decommissioned endpoint devices. Microsoft Intune can be used with Apple iOS, Google Android, Windows, and macOS/OS X devices.
