To reduce the security risk of the end devices and to protect them from data loss or malicious devices, it makes sense to also deal with the management of peripherals. Intune also has an answer for this with attack surface reduction policies. We would like to take a closer look at this topic in this blog post.
I have already written a blog about how to send a message using Logic apps to generate a regular device report. After a presentation about automation with Intune and Graph I got good feedback if I can do a variant with Co Managed devices. So I decided to write a V2 of this blog and also update the authentication with Managed Identity. If you are interested in more blogs around the topic of logic apps, let me know and I will be happy to do a deep dive on logic apps.
In this new blog post I want to give you an overview of how you can start with reporting analytics with Intune. I already wrote several blogs on how to create custom reports via mail or Teams, and how to export and automate things. I also wrote a blog with an overview of the analytics capabilities of Intune. In this post I want to take a step back and give you an overview of how to start with this topic and which capabilities Intune offers.
In today’s blog, I will address a question from one of our community members, who is looking to create a report for tracking Windows 11 upgrades via Azure Automation Runbook and Microsoft Intune. He has tried to gather enrolled devices details using a runbook but hasn’t found a solution yet. In this post, we will demonstrate how to generate a report on Windows 11 upgrade tracking with Intune and Azure Automation.
This post documents building an Intune AI voice bot with Azure OpenAI. The bot listens to a help-desk-style spoken question, queries Microsoft Graph for the user’s Intune device state, and answers — out loud — with the relevant policy or compliance information.
In today’s blog, I will announce the release of our experimental AI-driven voice assistant for Microsoft Intune-related questions. As you know, I am a huge fan of automation and AI technologies. I teamed up with Fabian Peschke to develop this innovative voice bot that aims to help users with their Intune questions.
Our voice bot is built using two different Microsoft cognitive services: Azure Speech Services and OpenAI’s GPT-35 Turbo. The Azure Speech Services allows the bot to recognize and synthesize speech, while OpenAI’s engine enables the bot to understand and respond to user queries intelligently. This bot was developed based on this example from Microsoft.
In one of my previous blog posts, I demonstrated how to enroll an Ubuntu device in Intune. In this blog post, I will walk you through creating and configuring custom Bash scripts for your Ubuntu devices using Microsoft Intune. With the service release 2023, Intune now supports running Bash scripts on Linux devices, offering a powerful way to manage and configure your Linux devices.
As you all know I am a very very big fan of automation. The good thing is in almost all Microsoft products there are interfaces to do exactly that. This is also the case for Intune. In one of my last blogs I wrote about how to use PowerShell to automate things in Intune. I also mentioned Azure Automation. In this blog I want to go deeper into the topic and explain how you can use Azure Automation to automate recurring processes.
In the third part of this Intune Suite series, I want to give you more insights into advanced endpoint analytics. I am really happy that Intune has gone in the direction of machine learning and anomaly detection. I blogged about these topics a few months ago, discussing how to analyze Intune data with the help of cognitive service anomaly detection. It’s awesome that Intune now includes this out-of-the-box in the tool. Unfortunately, I can’t test this feature in my own tenant because Endpoint analytics requires at least 10 devices, and this is not possible in my test tenant. However, I will cover all elements of the feature in this blog.

In my second part of the Intune suite series, after covering Remote Help in part 1, I want to talk about Endpoint Privilege Management. This feature is brand new and was released yesterday. Endpoint Privilege Management (EPM) is a powerful feature in Microsoft Intune that allows you to enable users to run as standard users, without administrative rights, while still being able to complete tasks that require elevated privileges. This blog post will guide you through setting up Endpoint Privilege Management in your organization, ensuring users can remain productive without compromising on security.
Keeping track of newly enrolled devices in your organization can be a challenging task when relying solely on the Intune console. Wouldn’t it be awesome to receive a comprehensive report automatically via email? As you know, I love automating things. In this blog post, we’ll explore a simple and efficient way to generate a weekly report for all newly enrolled devices using PowerShell, Azure Automation Runbooks, and Microsoft Graph API. This automated solution will save you time and effort, allowing you to focus on more important tasks in managing your organization’s devices. So, let’s dive in and learn how to create this valuable report!
