You\u2019ll see how Entra ID (identity) and Intune (device management) work together to enforce \u201cnever trust, always verify\u201d in everyday sign-ins, app access, and device use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>Zero Trust is not one product you buy. It\u2019s a strategy that assumes breaches can happen and focuses on limiting impact: verify identity, check device health, enforce least privilege, and continuously evaluate risk. The goal is to make safe access the default\u2014whether users are in the office, at home, or on a phone on hotel Wi\u2011Fi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-zero-trust-looks-like-in-microsoft-land\">What Zero Trust looks like in Microsoft land<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For many organisations, the fastest path to Zero Trust is to start with two controls that touch everything: <strong>identity<\/strong> and <strong>devices<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Microsoft Entra ID<\/strong> is the control plane for authentication and access decisions (sign-in, MFA, Conditional Access, identity protection).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Microsoft Intune<\/strong> is the control plane for device configuration and compliance (enrollment, policies, app protection, patch posture signals).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Together they enable the core Zero Trust idea: <strong>access is granted based on real-time signals<\/strong> (who you are, what device you\u2019re using, how risky the sign-in looks, what you\u2019re trying to access), not just a network location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-technology-behind-it-simple-but-accurate\">The technology behind it (simple but accurate)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the hood, Entra ID issues tokens (think: time-limited \u201cpasses\u201d) to apps like Microsoft 365, Azure, and SaaS tools. Conditional Access sits in the middle of that flow and can require extra proof (MFA), block access, or demand that the device meets standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Intune provides those device standards using two related ideas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Configuration policies<\/strong>: what you want the device to be (e.g., encryption on, firewall on, password rules).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Compliance policies<\/strong>: how you judge the device (e.g., OS version minimum, encryption required). A device is marked compliant or not.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Conditional Access can then say: \u201cYou can access payroll only if you sign in with MFA <em>and<\/em> your device is compliant.\u201d That\u2019s Zero Trust in action: identity + device + policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-practical-zero-trust-rollout-plan-phased\">A practical Zero Trust rollout plan (phased)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A successful rollout is usually incremental. You want early wins, minimal disruption, and measurable uplift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Phase 1: Protect sign-ins<\/strong> (MFA, block legacy auth, baseline Conditional Access).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Phase 2: Trust devices, not locations<\/strong> (Intune enrollment, compliance, \u201crequire compliant device\u201d).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Phase 3: Reduce blast radius<\/strong> (least privilege, privileged identity, tighter app access).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Phase 4: Continuous improvement<\/strong> (monitoring, tuning, exceptions, automation).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-by-step-implementation\">Step-by-step implementation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-prepare-entra-id-foundations\">1) Prepare Entra ID foundations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before policies, make sure your identity basics are solid:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Enable MFA<\/strong> for admins immediately, then for all users.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use modern authentication<\/strong> and plan to block legacy protocols (IMAP\/POP\/SMTP AUTH where not required).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use groups<\/strong> to target policies safely (pilot group first).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Have a break-glass account<\/strong> (cloud-only, strong password stored securely, excluded from Conditional Access, monitored).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-create-a-conditional-access-baseline\">2) Create a Conditional Access baseline<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Conditional Access (CA) is where Zero Trust becomes enforceable policy. Start with a small, sensible set:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Require MFA for all users<\/strong> (exclude break-glass, and consider excluding service accounts that can\u2019t do MFA).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Require MFA for risky sign-ins<\/strong> (if you\u2019re using risk signals).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Block legacy authentication<\/strong> to stop easy credential stuffing wins.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Roll these out in <strong>report-only<\/strong> mode first where possible, review the impact, then switch to <strong>on<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-enroll-devices-into-intune-choose-your-path\">3) Enroll devices into Intune (choose your path)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To use device-based access decisions, devices need to be managed or at least protected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Windows<\/strong>: Entra ID Join or Hybrid Join, then Intune enrollment (Autopilot is ideal for new builds).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>macOS<\/strong>: Intune enrollment with compliance + configuration profiles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>iOS\/iPadOS<\/strong>: enrollment with Apple Automated Device Enrollment (best) or user enrollment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Android<\/strong>: Android Enterprise work profile or fully managed devices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have BYOD, consider starting with <strong>App protection policies<\/strong> (MAM) for Outlook\/Teams\/Office to protect data without full device control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-define-device-compliance-what-healthy-means\">4) Define device compliance (what \u201chealthy\u201d means)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Compliance should be meaningful and achievable. A good starter set:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Require encryption<\/strong> (BitLocker\/FileVault).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Require a passcode<\/strong> and set reasonable complexity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Minimum OS version<\/strong> (and a maximum grace period for updates).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Block jailbroken\/rooted devices<\/strong> on mobile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Defender\/AV healthy<\/strong> (where supported in your environment).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep exceptions rare and time-bound. If a device can\u2019t meet compliance, decide whether the user should use a <strong>managed browser<\/strong> or limited web access instead of full desktop apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-tie-it-together-with-conditional-access-device-controls\">5) Tie it together with Conditional Access device controls<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once devices are enrolling and reporting compliance, you can enforce device trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Require compliant device<\/strong> for Microsoft 365 and key SaaS apps.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Require approved client app<\/strong> for mobile access (pairs well with MAM).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Session controls<\/strong>: limit download in browser, enforce sign-in frequency for high-risk apps.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>A common pattern is to start with high-impact apps first (email, SharePoint\/OneDrive, finance\/HR systems), then expand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-add-least-privilege-for-admins-and-sensitive-actions\">6) Add least privilege for admins and sensitive actions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Zero Trust is also about reducing privilege.
