This week Microsoft Intune (was Windows Intune) will be updated to a newer version. This major update will give us some really cool features that will enhance currently the standalone Microsoft Intune platform only. The service will be updated between November the 17th until November the 19th. Microsoft is doing a good job by updating the service so quickly, more than a year ago this process would take some weeks to complete! 🙂
Some of myhighlights that will become available after the Microsoft Intune service update are:
- Bulk enrollment of devices using a single service account
- Lockdown of Supervised iOS devices and devices using Samsung KNOX with Kiosk mode
- Enforcement of application install or uninstall
- Deployment of certificates, email, VPN and WiFi profiles
- Ability to push free store apps to iOS devices
- More convenient access to internal corporate resources using per-app VPN configurations for iOS devices
- Remote pin reset for Windows Phone 8.1 devices
- Multi-factor authentication at enrollment for Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1 devices
