One of the things I’m always aware of is certificate expiry, especially the ones used for Apple VPP, if those expire and aren’t renewed in time, you may find yourself factory resetting and re-enrolling again which I’m sure we all want to avoid. Whilst Outlook reminders are a wonderful thing, there is still an element … Read more
One question I’m often asked is around security policies within Intune, where to set them and why can they be set in so many different places? Before I start on what I prefer, there is no right or wrong answer for this one, ultimately they are all changing the same files/registry keys so it is … Read more

Now you want to go cloud native, but the idea of … Read more
I’m sure everyone reading this has deployed many applications within Intune using the win32 format and most likely used an MSI code or a file/registry detection method to monitor for a completed install (and why wouldn’t you, they work perfectly) Sometimes however, you might come across an application which is more tricky to detect, or … Read more
