Use MVISION Mobile with Intune

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

You can configure Conditional Access policies based on MVISION 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.

Supported platforms

  • Android 5.1 and later

  • iOS 10 and later

Prerequisites

  • Azure Active Directory Premium

  • Microsoft Intune subscription

  • MVISION Mobile subscription

For more information, see the documentation for McAfee MVISION Mobile.

How do Intune and MVISION help protect your company resources?

The MVISION Mobile app for Android and iOS/iPadOS captures file system, network stack, device, and application telemetry where available, then sends the telemetry data to the MVISION Mobile cloud service to assess the device's risk for mobile threats.

  • Support for enrolled devices - Intune device compliance policy includes a rule for Mobile Threat Defense (MTD), which can use risk assessment information from MVISION Mobile. When the MTD rule is enabled, Intune evaluates device compliance with the policy that you enabled. If the device is found noncompliant, users are blocked access to corporate resources like Exchange Online and SharePoint Online. Users also receive guidance from the MVISION Mobile app installed in their devices to resolve the issue and regain access to corporate resources. To support using MVISION Mobile with enrolled devices:

  • Support for unenrolled devices - Intune can use the risk assessment data from the MVISION Mobile app on unenrolled devices when you use Intune app protection policies. Admins can use this combination to help protect corporate data within a Microsoft Intune protected app, Admins can also issue a block or selective wipe for corporate data on those unenrolled devices. To support using MVISION Mobile with unenrolled devices:
