5starcooks Microsoft Intune A Complete Guide - 2019 Edition

Microsoft Intune is the backbone of modern endpoint management, yet many organizations lack a systematic way to evaluate their configuration, security, and compliance. Rapid cloud adoption, hybrid workforces, and evolving threat landscapes make it essential to understand exactly how Intune is deployed and where gaps exist. This book provides a clear path to that understanding. The Self-Assessment methodology is organized around seven criteria - Recognize, Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control, and Sustain. Hundreds of Intune-specific questions are grouped within each criterion. Readers score each question on a 1-5 scale, and the scores are plotted on a radar chart Scorecard that instantly reveals the strongest and weakest areas of their Intune environment. Even readers with limited Intune experience can complete the assessment in a single session and gain a data-driven view of their current state. Included Professional Toolkit (40-48 Practitioner Tools): The toolkit is generated fresh at the time of purchase, ensuring alignment with the latest Intune standards and best practices. It is organized into ten sections - Getting Started, Assessment and Planning, Models and Frameworks, Processes and Handoffs, Operations and Execution, Performance and KPIs, Quality and Compliance, Sustainment and Support, Advanced Topics, and Reference. The deliverables include maturity assessments with improvement paths, gap analyses, decision frameworks with scoring criteria, implementation roadmaps, stakeholder maps, process runbooks, KPI dashboard templates, risk matrices, audit checklists, quick reference cards, and more. Every Excel file contains three sheets (Instructions, Template, Pro Tips and Common Mistakes) and every PDF includes Pro Tips, Common Mistakes, and a Quick Reference section. The collection comprises roughly 28 Excel spreadsheets and 16 PDF guides, all tailored specifically to Microsoft Intune rather than generic templates. All purchases come with Lifetime Updates. As Microsoft Intune evolves, the author provides updated content and refreshed toolkit materials, guaranteeing that buyers always have current guidance without needing to buy a new edition. This book is ideal for IT managers responsible for device management, security compliance officers tasked with endpoint protection, and cloud architects designing enterprise-wide deployment strategies. For example, an IT manager preparing for an internal audit can use the assessment to pinpoint compliance gaps, then apply the toolkit's audit checklist and remediation roadmap to achieve a clean audit result. Developed by The Art of Service, business process architects serving over 100,000 professionals across 160 countries since 2000. Every book and toolkit draws on 25 years of operational excellence research and a continuously updated knowledge base spanning hundreds of industry frameworks.
