Enrolling a device

MS Intune lets you manage your workforce's devices and apps and how they access your company data. To use this mobile device management (MDM), the devices must first be enrolled in the Intune service.

About this task

When a device is enrolled, it is issued with an MDM certificate. This certificate is used to communicate with the Intune service. As an MS Intune administrator, you can enroll your android devices in the following ways with Android Enterprise:
  • Android Enterprise personally-owned with a work profile: For personal devices granted permission to access corporate data.
  • Android Enterprise dedicated: For corporate-owned, single use devices, such as digital signage, ticket printing, or inventory management.
  • Android Enterprise fully managed: For corporate-owned, single user devices used exclusively for work and not personal use.
  • Android Enterprise corporate-owned with a work profile: For corporate-owned, single user devices intended for corporate and personal use.
