Summary
In this chapter, we covered administration and policy management and the importance of managing devices. We started with an overview of device administration and the different ways in which Windows devices can connect and register to your domain. We then learned about Configuration Manager and how to securely deploy clients and manage policies and configurations.
Next, we walked through managing devices with Intune. We discussed the differences between MDM and MAM and covered how to use Intune with Microsoft Endpoint Manager. We talked about managing policies and baselines in Intune and recommendations on how to apply policies when using MDM. Finally, we covered different scenarios for how to administer security baselines to managed devices.
In Chapter 7, Deploying Windows Securely, we will cover different ways to build and deploy hardening images, covering different tools and techniques for Windows clients, servers, and virtualized environments.
