OISE Intune Migration Project

As part of our ongoing efforts to enhance security and streamline device management, we are migrating all Mac devices to Microsoft Intune. This transition will bring several cybersecurity benefits, ensuring our devices and data remain secure. 

Cybersecurity Benefits of Enrolling Mac Devices in Intune

Enhanced Data Protection

  • FileVault Encryption: Intune enforces FileVault encryption, which secures the entire disk and prevents unauthorized access
  • OS Updates: Ensures macOS devices are up to date with the latest security patches
  • Ensures your device receives the latest security updates and are compliant according to the University's security standards 

Firewall and Gatekeeper Settings

  • Ensures you have the latest Antivirus software agent in alignment with University's protocol to prevent any malware
  • Gatekeeper: Blocks unverified apps from running, reducing the risk of malware 

Centralized Monitoring and Management

  • Access the centralized app store
  • Compliance Monitoring: Intune provides real-time monitoring of device compliance and security status
