30 Jun A framework for Windows endpoint management transformation
Investments in Azure and Microsoft 365 can streamline your transition to the cloud and make it easier to manage endpoints across your organization. The “north star” for endpoint management transformation involves a holistic end-to-end solution set that simplifies operations, optimizes user experiences, and increases security using the best of suite culminating in a modern, cloud-managed Windows endpoint. Microsoft 365 provides this holistic solution across the entire framework.
How this will affect your organization:
An endpoint management framework helps accommodate the needs to update, extend, standardize, revitalize, secure, and simplify your work. Check out some of the key points from the framework:
- Update: use Delivery Optimization to drive security and business results by optimizing and de-duplicating bandwidth, quickly deploying critical changes which improve security and productivity.
- Extend: cloud-based and cloud-attached management tools such as Microsoft Endpoint Manager, or Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager with Tenant Attach and the Cloud Management Gateway benefit from your existing investments using Microsoft 365 to increase management reach while reducing infrastructure architecture, deployment, and operations cost.
- Standardize: proven solutions, such as simplifying endpoint deployment and eliminating depots by automatically applying policies and apps with guided scenarios and solutions such as Cloud config, help increase security and manageability while reducing costs.
- Revitalize: Endpoint Manager’s Software Center and Company Portal enable the management of application catalogs like a portal, directly integrating with distribution platforms with application portfolio management, and allow management of security and user experience, standardizing on reliable applications and a dependable, more focused operating system.
- Secure: provide the right balance of security and convenience, reducing attack surfaces, and increasing monitorability by leveraging Microsoft Intelligent Security Graph to detect malicious activities using Endpoint Detection and Response.
- Simplify: use intelligent Information Protection to protect your sensitive information inside and outside the corporate firewall and suggest user behavior, as well as prevent data loss with Endpoint DLP. Adopting a zero-trust approach and using a single powerful Windows identity across apps and endpoints simplifies user interactions in a world where identity is the new perimeter.
