Conditional access for managed apps

After a great MVP Summit and a session at a great Experts Live, it’s finally time for a new blog post. This blog post will be about conditional access for managed apps (MAM CA).

Quick tip: Working with the device enrollment manager and automatic enrollment

This is another short and quick blog post. This time about the device enrollment manager in combination with the automatic enrollment in Microsoft Intune, which is powered by Azure AD. The device enrollment manager is a configuration within Microsoft Intune standalone, or Microsoft Intune hybrid (starting with ConfigMgr 1511). However, with really active use of the device enrollment manager, it is possible to run into some default configuration challenges. This post will provide a quick tip about those challenges. Configuration The documentation about the device enrollment manager contains a note that device enrollment manager user accounts, with more than 20 devices enrolled, might have problems using the Company Portal app. In case that potential problem is not an issue, for the usage within the company, …
