Risk Based Windows 11 Feature Update Deployment - Improvements
Intune Windows 10 and later Software Updates Feature Updates Dynamic Groups PowerShell Graph API Automation
An unexpected update to the Windows 11 Feature Update deployment series, looking at how to tag users instead of devices, and an improved way to get the readiness report data, and other performance improvements. What a day.
Forcing Windows 11 Feature Update Readiness Assessments

As a migration to Windows 11 is fast upon us, I thought I’d help your devices on their way into understanding whether they will support Windows 11 and what risks you may encounter with the update, by forcing devices to evaluate their readiness states.
Converting AppLocker Policies to Intune Profiles
Intune Windows 10 and later AppLocker Security PowerShell Custom Profiles Graph API Endpoint Security
We know that there is no native configuration for AppLocker in Intune, and we should be looking at App Control for Business already, but there is still a place for AppLocker, and I haven’t got time to manually do anything, so let’s use PowerShell to create out AppLocker policies from exported XML files.
Scheduling Defender for macOS Antivirus Scans in Intune
Intune macOS Configuration Custom Profiles PowerShell Security Jamf Endpoint Security Microsoft Defender
You’d think creating Defender antivirus scan schedules should be pretty easy, even if the devices you’re working with are running macOS. Why are we having to create mobileconfig files for this in Microsoft Intune? Surely we can make this a little better?
Installing the Configuration Manager Client on Orphaned Internet Devices

You’ve just implemented a Cloud Management Gateway to help your hybrid joined Windows devices communicate to Configuration Manager over the internet, but what if they’re orphaned and unable to communicate to Configuration Manager to get the new Client Settings?
Patching Gaps in the CIS Windows 11 Benchmark - Level 2 Windows 11

This is the last part in the series around the CIS (Center for Internet Security) benchmark for Windows 11, and we’d like to say that we’ve saved the best post for last, but we’d be lying. Surely the Level 2 settings can’t be worse than the Level 1?
Microsoft Intune and the Curious Case of the Converting Firewall Rule Policy

When did Microsoft go all covert ops (maybe don’t answer that question) and start making changes to your very own Firewall Rule policies in Microsoft Intune without letting anyone know? Or did they?
Patching Gaps in the CIS Windows 11 Benchmark - Level 1 Windows 11

The impact of the CIS settings on BitLocker and Windows Autopilot now done and dusted, we should broaden our horizons and start to look at what other problems the CIS level 1 benchmark brings to Windows 11 as a whole. Are there any? Will it be smooth sailing? Yeah, no.
Patching Gaps in the CIS Windows 11 Benchmark - Level 1 Windows Autopilot

With the CIS BitLocker and associated DMA settings reviewed and updated, now is time to delve into the Windows 11 specific settings that exist in the CIS Level 1 benchmark. What issues do they bring to Windows Autopilot, what solutions can we find? Honestly, who knows.
