Mastering Microsoft Intune

Introduction to Microsoft 365

Understanding the fundamentals of a product is the most important thing for a successful deployment. Keeping your resources secure while leveraging other services within the Microsoft 365 product suite is what you will learn about in this chapter.

In this chapter, we’ll go through the following topics:

  • Microsoft 365 cloud services
  • Microsoft Intune
  • Intune Suite
  • Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) and Windows 365
  • Windows 11
  • Windows Copilot
  • Security Copilot
  • Endpoint analytics
  • Productivity Score
  • Universal Print
  • Microsoft Defender for Endpoint
  • Microsoft Teams
  • Edge
  • Exchange Online
  • SharePoint Online

Microsoft 365 cloud services

Microsoft 365 cloud services (hereafter referred to as Microsoft 365) includes many services that you might use in your day job, whether as an IT professional or a non-technical user. These services help you to become more productive by simplifying tasks that would require a lot of work in on-premises environments.

A great example would be the shift we’ve made from Exchange Server to Exchange Online and of course now the shift of Windows to Windows 365, which is Microsoft’s latest cloud service that allows enterprises and small businesses to leverage the power of Azure computing in Windows to improve the performance, scalability, and productivity of users across any device, any platform!

What do these services achieve?

In this introductory section of the book, we will briefly explain the core Microsoft 365 services and features that are relevant to the subject of this book, just to get a good baseline understanding of the differences...

Summary

In this chapter, you learned about different Microsoft 365 services you might use in your day job or as part of your journey to using Microsoft Intune to simplify the management overhead of your environment. What you didn’t learn is that some of these services cost more on top of the existing Intune subscription.

This chapter is mainly intended to provide context for the later chapters in the book; we are now switching gears and taking you on the journey of unified endpoint management with Microsoft Intune.

There is not much printed documentation about this product. Microsoft's website is complex, so the existence of these books is appreciated.

The second edition of 'Mastering Microsoft Intune' is a must read and a superb addition to the list of Intune published books on offer. As it says on the front of the book this is an 'Expert Insight' into the world of Intune and it does a great job in bringing you up to date with all the latest changes and advancements.The book not only describes all the key technologies that can be deployed and managed through Intune, it also looks at how the world of IT has changed and how to make the right technology decisions.Intune has come a long way very quickly, so for me the two chapters on Copilot and the Intune Suite are great additions which help you understand how they can be best applied using real world examples.As an Enterprise Mobility MVP myself I can definitely say it has helped me build my own knowledge and covers a broad range of topics over the 18 chapters.Congratulations to Christiaan Brinkhoff and Per Larsen in producing such an awesome second edition.

Delving into "Mastering Microsoft Intune - Second Edition" has been enlightening. As an experienced Intune engineer, I appreciate the depth and new insights it offers, enhancing my substantial expertise. Yet, what impresses me most is the book's dual appeal. It skillfully bridges the gap between novices eager to learn and experts seeking to deepen their mastery. Its clear, comprehensive coverage makes complex topics accessible to beginners, while its detailed exploration of advanced features provides valuable knowledge expansion for seasoned professionals like myself. This book is a versatile resource, poised to elevate the skills of anyone in the Intune sphere, regardless of their starting point.

Having just finished reading Christian's book I must say that I'm delighted with depth and quality of the content. I've been waiting for this to come out, and I was not disappointed. It's concise and well written with lots of examples. It cover everything from deploying devices to installing apps and much more. It also discusses Windows 365 & AVD integration which was awesome. If you're studying for the MD-102 exam then this is a book you'll definitely need.

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:
