Device profiles contain configuration and compliance settings that can be pushed out to devices. For example, this ability allows administrators to bring organization-owned Windows devices to a compliant state in bulk, or to make adjustments to a master profile and implement them efficiently. These profiles contain such settings as the following:
- Administrative templates (groups of settings, similar to group policy)
- Device features
- Device restrictions
- Endpoint protection
- Identity protection
- VPN

Device profiles are also available to be configured for iOS and Android devices. These device profiles may include permission to use AirPrint printers in the organization, email profile configurations, Wi-Fi or VPN access, and more.
