Consider this: when it comes to securing enterprise applications, you might not have the whole story. You may have heard that an Office 365 application-only security framework can adequately protect your network. However, the truth is that applications remain vulnerable until you secure the entire endpoint.

Integrate Office 365 with Workspace ONE to enable Office 365 application controls, without compromising security. Today’s post explores the pitfalls of taking an application-only security approach for Office 365, and recommends Workspace ONE & Office 365 with Intune MAM to address these shortcomings.

However, making Intune EMM a requirement for managing Office 365 doesn’t play well in today’s security market.
