Secure Endpoint Baseline

One enforced endpoint baseline across every device, built with Microsoft Intune.

Unmanaged and unpatched devices are the doors attackers try first. In 3 to 6 weeks, CloudWay builds a minimum viable endpoint security baseline with Microsoft Intune and enforces it consistently: enrollment planned, compliance policies and configuration baselines applied, update rings set, and access tied to device health.

The challenge

Attackers target the laptop nobody enrolled and the PC three patch cycles behind. In a mixed estate without a common baseline, IT cannot even see those gaps, let alone close them, and every unmanaged endpoint is a way into Microsoft 365.

Mixed device estate

Devices may be managed differently, creating inconsistent security coverage.

Patch inconsistency

Patching and encryption posture can vary across users and devices.

Limited visibility

IT may lack a clear view of device compliance and security gaps.

What we do

CloudWay establishes one endpoint baseline and makes it stick. We plan Microsoft Intune onboarding for your device estate, define compliance policies for device health, encryption, and security requirements, and apply consistent configuration baselines across managed devices. We set up update rings for controlled, predictable patching, and connect access rules to device compliance, so devices that do not meet the baseline do not reach company data.

Step 1

Plan Intune onboarding

Define how devices will be enrolled, grouped, and managed.

Step 2

Set compliance policies

Create policies for device health, encryption, and security requirements.

Step 3

Configure baselines

Apply consistent configuration baselines across managed devices.

Step 4

Enforce updates and access

Set update rings and access rules so endpoint posture stays consistent.

You get

Typical outcomes

Intune onboarding plan

You get an Intune onboarding plan covering enrollment for your device estate.

Higher compliance

Compliance rates climb and stay visible in one dashboard.

Compliance policies

You get compliance policies for device health, encryption, and security requirements.

Fewer unmanaged devices

Unknown and unmanaged devices stop being a blind spot.

Configuration baselines

You get consistent configuration baselines applied across managed devices.

Better patch hygiene

Patching becomes predictable instead of best-effort.

Update rings

You get update rings that roll patches out in controlled waves, so updates land predictably.

Access rules

You get access rules tied to device compliance, so a lost or out-of-date device loses access to company data automatically.

Ideal for

Mixed device estates

For organisations with mixed devices and low compliance visibility.

Inconsistent patching or encryption

For IT teams with inconsistent patching or encryption posture.

Measurable endpoint baseline

For leaders needing an enforceable baseline across every device.

Why CloudWay

CloudWay’s security engagements are led by specialists Microsoft itself recognises: seven of the team are Microsoft MVPs. Based in Norway and working across Europe, CloudWay hands over tuned configurations, runbooks, and trained people rather than dependencies. The customer stories page has the details.
