From Risk to Resilience: Eltel’s Security Upgrade with Microsoft Intune
Eltel, a company managing an extensive IT network, needed a robust and scalable solution to manage endpoint security. Deploying Microsoft Intune was a key step in modernizing the management of these devices, enabling a unified platform to monitor and protect your hybrid environment.
The decision to migrate from a third-party MDM solution to Microsoft Intune not only simplified device management, but also integrated Microsoft cloud tools with Conditional Access, which increased the level of control over resources in the network. This is an important part of a Zero Trust strategy that involves continuous monitoring, authentication, and restriction of access based on context and risk.
Microsoft Intune: Scalable Security Solution
Thanks to the scalability of Microsoft Intune, Eltel was able to efficiently manage thousands of end devices around the world.
Intune offers
- A central platform for managing all your devices – both in the office and remotely.
- Integration with Microsoft cloud tools, which simplifies the management of access to corporate resources.
- Automated security policies that support a dynamic, hybrid work environment.
