How App Protection Policies Work in Intune

-

 As a user logs into APP enabled applications Intune automatically delivers policy targeted to users and then applies the settings specific by the administrator. Most often policies include securing access through Biometric/PIN, encrypting data, and check to see that the device is secure. User’s personal data is also separated from their corporate data.

Because of its architecture, APP can be deployed easily in either scenario. As a new user logs into the app, they’ll automatically receive policy before they use the application, and your existing users will also start receiving policy as they open and use protected apps. Finally, the applications can still be securely wiped, and corporate data removed using the same types of processes in you use today. Admins can trigger the wipe from the console, or it could be triggered automatically when a user’s account is disabled. In both scenarios the user’s personal data will remain intact when the wipe occurs.
