📌 Latest article - https://www.dan-t.cloud/posts/intune_security_baselines/
🔐 How secure are your Windows devices really?
If you’re using Microsoft Intune and haven’t yet deployed Security Baselines, you’re missing one of the simplest, most powerful tools for strengthening endpoint security, with just a few clicks.
✅ It’s fast to deploy
✅ Microsoft’s recommendations are solid
⚠️ But not all defaults fit every environment
For example:
🔍Enabling Credential Guard caused issues with legacy sign-ins
🔍Blocking removable storage was great for security, not for productivity
🔍BitLocker enforcement failed on devices without a TPM chip
💡 Our advice? Start with a pilot group, review each category (Defender, BitLocker, SmartScreen, etc.) and always monitor the outcome using assignment reports.
