Microsoft Intune Cookbook, Second Edition, is a hands-on guide for IT administrators managing and supporting modern endpoints, built around the latest Intune capabilities and endpoint security enhancements.

Written by Andrew Taylor, an experienced Intune practitioner and active community contributor, it focuses on everyday admin tasks and turns them into clear, repeatable recipes. You'll start by preparing an Intune tenant and setting up key Entra ID foundations, then work through managing Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and Linux using practical, proven workflows. Along the way, you'll configure policies, enroll devices, deploy apps, and strengthen security with compliance, Microsoft Defender integration, encryption, and Conditional Access. You'll also go beyond the portal by using PowerShell and Microsoft Graph to automate routine work, reduce manual effort, and make changes at scale. Monitoring and reporting are covered so you can track device health, security posture, and deployment outcomes with confidence.

Advanced scenarios include secure remote support, privilege elevation, cloud-based certificate management, real-time queries, and AI-assisted guidance to speed up troubleshooting and decision-making. By the end, you'll have practical techniques you can apply immediately to run a modern, cloud-first Intune environment.
