Focus Areas: Defense-in-Depth, Asset Management, Intune Baselines


Objectives

Strengthen understanding of enterprise defense layers and reinforce device-management baselines through Intune practice.


Activities & Labs

  • Reviewed NIST SP 800-53 control families for awareness of administrative, technical, and physical safeguards.
  • Applied configuration policies to test endpoints in Intune sandbox.
  • Practiced conditional-access creation based on device compliance.

Knowledge & Concept Highlights

  • Administrative vs technical vs physical controls.
  • Role-based access control (RBAC) design in cloud environments.
  • Security baselines and drift detection.

Reflections & Takeaways

Began translating abstract control frameworks into concrete Microsoft cloud implementations.
Confidence growing in mapping theory to practice.
