Wouldn’t it be great if your Intune-managed devices could securely connect to Intune or Entra ID to perform actions on themselves? Imagine a device querying its own information from Microsoft Graph API or updating custom attributes in the cloud, all triggered by a locally running script—without exposing credentials or compromising security.

While these capabilities are possible in various ways, the key challenge is how to implement them securely. How do you enable automation without embedding secrets in your code or opening vulnerabilities?

In this session, we’ll take a deep dive into secure automation for cloud-managed devices. We’ll explore how to ensure that communication between a device and the cloud is trusted, authenticated, and protected. You’ll learn best practices for securing automation in a cloud-first world, retrieving data from Intune or Entra ID, and leveraging Azure services to enable seamless, secure workflows.

Key takeaways:
✅ How to use Azure Functions and Managed Identities for secure automation
✅ Ensuring only trusted devices can interact with your infrastructure
✅ Real-world implementations of these strategies in large enterprise environments
