Intune consolidates our endpoint and security management tools, providing a centralized solution for controlling security and ensuring compliance with the federal government, NIST, and ISO standards. This centralized control is crucial for maintaining a secure and compliant environment. Endpoint analytics help proactively detect and remediate anomalies on endpoints. We receive alerts from various detection devices, including biological, radiological, and mobile platforms. A common challenge with Bluetooth or similar technologies is maintaining connectivity, whether it's Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. Additionally, we need to protect the Wi-Fi network itself. To address these security concerns, we often use proprietary connectivity protocols to ensure data integrity and prevent hacking, fraud, or unauthorized access. Intune's Cloud PKI helps us manage our current and historical actions. We can easily access recurring tasks and look for common problems, which is an important attribute of using the cloud service. For our benefit, Intune is very useful. However, the challenge is keeping it up to date and dealing with shift workers across different time zones. When deploying to the New York region, multiple fire and police departments use these devices. We maintain a database to track deployment status and device updates to ensure effective management. Devices unused for 90 days are suspended with the carrier to avoid higher fees for inactive devices. Although maintaining these devices can be challenging, we closely monitor them and collaborate with regional directors to ensure they are turned on at least every 90 days for automatic updates. We use the privilege management feature exclusively for points of contact or location managers. Due to the group's diversity and the inclusion of shift workers, these individuals require specific access from an identity management perspective. We only permit access in these designated areas. Intune saves costs for the federal government. One reason my employer switched to Intune was the integration of Intune with Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Security.
