Microsoft Cloud Endpoint (or modern endpoint management) refers to the process of remotely administering and securing end-user devices, such as desktops, laptops, smartphones, tablets, and IoT devices, within an organisation’s network. The goal of endpoint management is to ensure that these devices are properly configured, compliant with security policies, and current with software patches and updates, while also optimising their performance and reliability.

Endpoint management typically involves the following key components:

Device configuration icon

Device configuration:

administrators configure devices with settings and policies to ensure they meet organisational requirements and standards. This may include configuring network settings, software installations, and access controls

Security management icon

Security management:

endpoint management includes implementing security measures to protect devices from threats such as malware, ransomware, and unauthorised access. This involves deploying antivirus software, firewalls, encryption, and other security tools, as well as enforcing security policies such as password requirements and access controls

Patch management icon

Patch management:

ensuring that devices are kept up to date with the latest software patches and updates is critical for addressing vulnerabilities and reducing the risk of cyber attacks. Endpoint management solutions automate the process of patch deployment and installation to ensure devices are protected against known security vulnerabilities

Reporting and analytics icon

Monitoring and reporting:

endpoint management solutions provide visibility into the status and health of devices across the network. Administrators can monitor device performance, security compliance, and usage patterns, and generate reports to identify trends, troubleshoot issues, and make informed decisions

Remote support and troubleshooting icon

Remote support and troubleshooting:

administrators can remotely diagnose and troubleshoot issues on end-user devices, reducing the need for manual intervention

Compliance management icon

Compliance management:

ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and industry standards is essential for organisations in most industries. Endpoint management solutions help organisations enforce compliance policies, track compliance status, and generate audit reports to demonstrate adherence to regulatory requirements

When we started on this Cyber Essentials journey, we recognised that we needed to integrate our systems with a single authentication service to simplify our implementation of MFA. We therefore chose to deploy Microsoft Intune to simplify user authentication with our existing deployment of Microsoft Entra ID. Prior to deploying Entra ID we couldn’t see if a password was compromised, if software was out-of-date, OS out-of-date, etc. Ultimately, we had no oversight as to which logins or devices were risky to us. Entra ID and Intune changed all that.”

An endpoint is a device that communicates with a computer network and shares data with it. Some endpoints include mobile devices, desktop computers, virtual machines, embedded devices, and servers. Internet of Things (IoT) devices – like cameras, lighting, refrigerators, security systems, smart speakers, and thermostats – are also endpoints. The information exchange between a device and a network, such as a laptop and a network, is similar to a phone conversation between two people.
