Conditional Access and Microsoft Intune

While conditional access is a feature of Azure AD Premium, it integrates closely with Microsoft Intune to add mobile device compliance and mobile app management capabilities.

This is why Conditional Access may also be accessed by users with the appropriate roles and permissions from within Microsoft Intune (also commonly referred to as Microsoft Intune). The Microsoft Intune admin center is accessed via https://intune.microsoft.com and Conditional access may be found in the Devices section as shown in the following screenshot:

Now that you understand the relationship between Conditional Access and Intune, let’s examine two more types of conditional access—device-based conditional access and app-based conditional access.
