Microsoft Intune helps minimize complexity by offering mobile device management through the cloud with integrated data protection and compliance capabilities. Intune provides secure management of personal and corporate-owned devices across the most popular platforms, including Windows, Windows Phone, iOS, and Android. You can provide users with the ability to enroll their own devices for management as well as install corporate applications from the self-service Company Portal. In the case of large-scale device deployments, you can simplify enrollment using Apple Configurator or an Intune service account.
With Intune’s resource access policies, you can restrict users from accessing corporate resources on an unenrolled or non-compliant device.
You can also apply device settings that can enable remote actions such as passcode reset, device lock, data encryption, or full wipe of a lost or stolen device.

With Microsoft Intune, manageability and data protection is built directly into the Office mobile apps your employees are most familiar with, helping prevent leakage of company data by restricting actions such as copy/cut/paste/save in your managed app ecosystem. Intune also provides the flexibility to extend these capabilities to existing line-of-business apps with the Intune app wrapper and offers secure content viewing using the Managed Browser, PDF Viewer, AV Player, and Image Viewer apps.
You also have the ability to deny specific applications or URL addresses from being accessed on a mobile device and can push required apps automatically during enrollment.
To further protect corporate information, you can selectively wipe managed apps and related data on devices that are unenrolled, no longer compliant, lost, stolen, or retired from use.

Microsoft Intune provides a comprehensive solution for managing across a variety of devices, including PCs and laptops.
Through integration with System Center 2012 Configuration Manager, you can further enhance your ability to manage PCs, Macs, and Unix/Linux servers, as well as mobile devices, all from a single management console.
You can also protect against malware threats on managed computers, collect information about hardware configurations and software installed on managed computers, and simplify administration by deploying software and configuring Windows Firewall settings on computers.
