In today's cybersecurity landscape, businesses face the constant challenge of balancing user productivity with robust security measures. Microsoft's Intune Endpoint Privilege Management (EPM) offers a powerful solution to this dilemma, revolutionizing how organizations manage user privileges on their devices.

What is Intune Endpoint Privilege Management?

Intune EPM is a cloud-based service that allows organizations to implement a least-privilege access model for their Windows devices. It enables standard users to perform tasks that typically require administrative privileges, without compromising security.

Key Features & Benefits of EPM?

  • Enhanced Security – Reduces attack surfaces by removing standing administrative rights from users. Also supports zero-trust principles, strengthening overall security posture.
  • Improved Productivity – Allows users to complete IT-approved tasks without constant IT intervention.
  • Granular Control - Provides options for automatic elevations, user-confirmed elevations, and support-approved elevations
  • Analytics Reporting - Delivers detailed reporting and analytics on privilege elevations across the organization
  • Simplified Management - Integrates seamlessly with existing Microsoft 365 and Intune environments & eliminates the need for additional agents, as all components are built into Windows 10 and 11.
