With Microsoft Intune for Government, administrators can easily manage the mobile devices used by their workforce to access company data and manage the mobile apps that they use. It helps to ensure devices and apps are compliant with company security requirements.
Intune device management works by using the protocols or APIs that are available in the mobile operating systems. It enables admins to enroll devices so the IT department has an inventory of devices that are accessing corporate services. Devices can be configured to ensure they meet company security and health standards. Admins are also given the ability to remove corporate data from managed devices, in the event the devices are lost or stolen.
With Intune app management, admins can assign mobile apps to employees, and configure apps with standard settings that are used when the app runs. The service enables control over how corporate data is used and shared by mobile apps. Intune reports can be run on mobile app inventory and on employee mobile app usage.
