Better Mobile Threat Defense connector with Intune

You can control mobile device access to corporate resources using Conditional Access based on risk assessment conducted by Better Mobile, a Mobile Threat Defense (MTD) solution that integrates with Microsoft Intune. Risk is assessed based on telemetry collected from devices running the Better Mobile app.

You can configure Conditional Access policies based on Better Mobile risk assessment enabled through Intune device compliance policies for enrolled devices, which you can use to allow or block noncompliant devices to access corporate resources based on detected threats. For unenrolled devices, you can use app protection policies to enforce a block or selective wipe based on detected threats.

How do Intune and Better Mobile help protect your company resources?

The Better Mobile app is installed and run on mobile devices. This app captures file system, network stack, device, and application telemetry where available, and then sends the data to the Better Mobile cloud service to assess the device's risk for mobile threats.
