Device Compliance

CIS - Require managed device

Require compliant device · Require hybrid Azure AD join

About this policy

The CIS - Require managed device policy requires all users to be on a compliant or hybrid Azure AD joined device when accessing any cloud app. This ensures that only corporate-managed devices can reach your environment, reducing the risk of data being accessed from unmanaged personal devices or unknown endpoints. It is a strong control but does require a healthy Intune or hybrid join deployment beforehand, as enabling it prematurely can lock out legitimate users.

Policy conditions

Users: All users
Apps: All cloud apps
