Since Windows 10 1709, it is possible to automatically enroll the computer on Azure Active Directory (AD). For this you can use using a group policy parameter.
Autoenrollment requires meeting some prerequisites : Continue reading
This authentification allows you to use the same password for the on-premise and Cloud-based applications. However, it’s important to note that user authentication is done through the Active Directory on-premise and not through Azure Active Directory. It’s a good alternative to Azure AD Password Hash Synchronization. However, it makes it easier to apply a security policy to passwords.
This solution offers the following benefits :
The registration of an IOS device in Microsoft Intune requires to use a certificate. This certificate must be requested on the apple site. It’s valid for 1 year and must be renewed before it’s expiry. In case of deletion or expiry of the certificate, it’s necessary to re-register all the device. It’s very important to use the same Apple ID.
From the Azure portal, it’s possible to view the expiration date.
Azure information Protection allows document classification and this to apply protection. Microsoft implemented the AIP scanner to perform automatic document classification. Following the discovery of the files, an AIP label is positioned. This operation is performed automatically, so the protection is applied. In the same case, the protection can be removed.
A Windows indexed file inspection is performed by the scanner. This operation is performed using the iFilters installed on the computer. The scanner thus has the possibility of classifying and protecting these files if need be.

With this feature, administrators have the ability to lock the use of a device ( authorized applications,…). Thus the user cannot install his applications (social networks, games,…). It’s important to note that registration is done without a user account. The equipment is therefore not associated with any end user.

intune allows to deploy an email profile on registered devices. It is thus possible to automate the configuration of an email profile on one or more devices. It is interesting to note that the built-in mail client is supported for most platforms. Email profile can be deployed on this platforms.

Some company resources are accessible through a digital certificate. It’s therefore necessary for users to have a certificate to access VPN, Wifi,…
These certificates prevent the use a user name and password. Intune allows you to assign and manage these certificates. Two types of certificates can be used:
The compliance policy in Intune is an important point because it makes it possible to verify that mobile device complies with security constraints. Several parameters can be configured in the compliance policy.
We have had the possibility for many years to join a machine to an Active Directory domain. With cloud services (Office 365, Azure AD, …) identity management has become a very important point. Microsoft implemented in Windows 10, the functionality Azure AD Join (previously Workplace Join) allowing the junction of the machine in Azure AD Join.
Several hybridization scenarios can be implemented:
Files are an important resource in a company. For workstations rarely connected to the local network, these files are stored locally.
It is therefore important to ensure that these files are synchronized on an enterprise server or in the cloud. All protocols offered by Windows Server (SMB, NFS et FTPS) are available in Azure File Sync.
