The Midwest Management Summit (MMSMOA) brought together experts in endpoint management, identity, cloud, and security to discuss the Modern Workplace and Digital Transformation. Key topics included Microsoft Intune, Microsoft Entra ID, and Microsoft Security.

You Should Know:

Microsoft Intune Commands & Practices

1. Enroll a Windows Device in Intune

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "& { $ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop'; & $env:SystemRoot\System32\DeviceEnroller.exe /c /AutoEnrollMDM }"

2. Check Intune Management Status

Get-WmiObject -Namespace "root\cimv2\mdm\dmmap" -Class "MDM_EnrollmentManager" | Select-Object InstanceID

Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) Security

3. List All Azure AD Users with PowerShell

Connect-AzureAD 
Get-AzureADUser | Select-Object DisplayName, UserPrincipalName 

4. Enable MFA for a User

Set-MsolUser -UserPrincipalName "[email protected]" -StrongAuthenticationRequirements @{State="Enabled"}

Cloud Security Best Practices

5. Check Conditional Access Policies

Get-AzureADMSConditionalAccessPolicy | Select-Object DisplayName, State 

6. Audit Sign-In Logs

Get-AzureADAuditSignInLogs -Top 100 | Format-Table UserDisplayName, CreatedDateTime, AppDisplayName 

Windows Endpoint Hardening

7. Disable SMBv1 (Security Risk)

Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName "SMB1Protocol" -NoRestart 

8. Enable Windows Defender Firewall Logging

Set-NetFirewallProfile -Profile Domain,Public,Private -LogAllowed True -LogBlocked True -LogFileName "%SystemRoot%\System32\LogFiles\Firewall\pfirewall.log" 

Linux Security for Hybrid Environments

9. Check Failed SSH Logins

sudo grep "Failed password" /var/log/auth.log 

10. Block an IP with UFW (Uncomplicated Firewall)

sudo ufw deny from 192.168.1.100 

What Undercode Say

The Modern Workplace relies on automation, identity security, and cloud integration. Microsoft Intune and Entra ID play crucial roles in device and identity management. Security best practices, such as enforcing MFA, disabling legacy protocols (SMBv1), and monitoring logs, are essential.
