Getting started with Microsoft Tunnel for Mobile Application Management for Android

by

This week is a follow-up on the post of last week. While last week the focus was on iOS/iPadOS devices, this week the focus is on Android devices. Some parts might overlap with that post of last week, but those parts are definitely needed for the completeness of the story and the configuration. So, in general, the focus is still on Microsoft Tunnel for Mobile Application Management (Tunnel for MAM). As mentioned last week, Tunnel for MAM is one of the features that was released at the beginning of March as part of the Intune Suite add-ons. Tunnel for MAM itself, is available as part of the new Microsoft Intune Plan 2 license. The great thing about Tunnel for MAM is that it makes it …

Getting started with Microsoft Tunnel for Mobile Application Management for iOS/iPadOS

by

This week is all about one of the new Intune Suite add-on capabilities. The capability of focus is Microsoft Tunnel for Mobile Application Management (Tunnel for MAM) for iOS/iPadOS devices. The Intune Suite add-ons were released at the beginning of March, including a new licensing model, and including Tunnel for MAM. That capability on itself, is available as part of the new Microsoft Intune Plan 2 license. Tunnel for MAM makes it possible to provide access to on-premises resources, on unmanaged devices. Often unmanaged devices are equal to personal-owned devices. So, that provides IT with the flexibility to make that app, with on-premises interaction, available on personal-owned devices. Without requiring the user to enroll that specific device, but still enforcing secure access and guaranteeing full …

Conditional access for Exchange Online to the max

by

This week I want to show another look at conditional for Exchange Online. I want to do that by providing a scenario. That scenario will cover more than just conditional access. Mainly because conditional access simply blocks access to non-compliant devices, but what if I want to take it one step further? What if I also want to prevent potential data leakage? In that case I can’t just look at conditional access. In that case I also need to add mobile app management to the playing field. This post will address those subjects for Exchange Online. Scenario Now lets start with the scenario that I want to cover. Even though I know that I will use Microsoft Intune and related technologies to do the configuration, …

More in control of mobile app management without enrollment

by

Earlier this year I did my first post about the ability to use mobile app management without enrollment. This week I want to continue on that specific subject. The main trigger for that is  the app reporting ability that was added during the April update of Microsoft Intune. In this post I want to show how this new feature can help with being more in control of the usage of mobile app management policies for mobile app management without enrollment (also known as MDM-less MAM). Wipe requests Before showing the app reporting ability, to monitor the managed apps that are used by a user, I’ll start with a little information about wipe requests. Not only will that show the added value for managed apps, it’s …

Frequently asked questions about mobile application management without enrollment

by

Last update: 08-04-2016 After my blog post a couple of weeks ago, I got many question related to mobile application management (MAM) without enrollment. That triggered me to create a quick frequently asked questions (FAQ) post. MAM without enrollment is online also referred to as MDM-less MAM, Azure MAM and sometimes even Intune MAM. As MDM-less MAM seems to be the most common used, and the shortest, I’ll start using that in this FAQ. I’ll try to keep this FAQ as complete and up-to-date as possible. Just to be sure, I’ve added a last update date at the top of this post. That is the date that this content was reviewed the last. Also, if I’m missing some obvious question, please don’t hesitate to contact …

Mobile application management without enrollment

by

At the end of last year Microsoft introduced the very nice feature of mobile application management without the requirement of device enrollment. What makes it even better is that it can also be used in combination with third-party mobile device management and it can be used in combination with Microsoft Intune mobile device management. In this blog post I’ll go through the configuration options, I’ll go through the configuration steps and I’ll go through the end-user experience. Configuration in the Azure portal Now let’s start with the configuration of this type mobile application management policies. The first difference, with the normal mobile application management policies, is that the configuration is done through the Azure portal. The rest of the configuration experience is also completely different. …
