Define a clear, supportable endpoint strategy that balances user experience and risk across corporate-owned, BYOD, and shared device scenarios using Microsoft Intune and Microsoft Entra controls.
Most organisations end up with a mixed endpoint estate: corporate laptops, personally owned phones, contractor devices, and occasionally shared or kiosk devices. The risk is not the mix itself; the risk is inconsistency. Without a defined strategy, the organisation drifts into ad-hoc enrolment, unclear support boundaries, and “one-size-fits-all” policies that frustrate users and still leave security gaps. The result is avoidable incidents, excessive exceptions, and unpredictable device compliance.
LW IT Solutions delivers BYOD vs Corporate Device Strategy as a structured engagement that turns your current estate into a clear policy and operating model. We define what you will manage, what you will not manage, and what controls apply to each device category. We then translate that into an Intune-ready design: enrolment options, app protection controls, compliance requirements, Conditional Access alignment, and support processes. Where BYOD is in scope, we emphasise modern approaches such as app-level protection and minimal-intrusion management rather than unnecessary full-device control.
Talk through your requirements and leave with a clear next-step plan.

Service Overview
Highlights
- Clear separation of corporate, BYOD, shared, and kiosk devices
- Focus on app-level protection for BYOD scenarios
- Conditional Access alignment to device state and risk
- Defined support boundaries and exception handling
- Designed to translate directly into Intune configuration
Business Benefits
- Clear rules for which devices are supported and how they are managed
- Improved user experience by matching controls to device ownership
- Reduced security risk through consistent, defensible policy decisions
- Lower support overhead from standardised enrolment and exceptions
- Better stakeholder confidence through documented risk trade-offs
Typical use cases
- Organisations with mixed corporate and personal devices
- Introducing BYOD without full device enrolment
- Reducing friction caused by one-size-fits-all policies
- Preparing for Intune rollout or policy refresh
- Need for a documented, defensible endpoint strategy
Objectives & deliverables
What Success Looks Like
- Define which device types are supported (corporate, BYOD, shared, kiosk) and under what rules
- Clarify the minimum security and compliance baseline for each device category
- Align data protection to realistic user experience (especially for mobile BYOD)
- Reduce support overhead by standardising enrolment, configuration, and exception handling
- Provide leadership and stakeholders with a defensible rationale for policy decisions and risk trade-offs
What You Get
- Endpoint strategy document (device categories, support boundaries, and control model)
- High-level Intune design aligned to the strategy (enrolment, compliance, app protection, Conditional Access touchpoints)
- Policy and governance outline (approvals, exceptions, and periodic review cadence)
- Rollout plan with pilot groups, comms outline, and success criteria
How It Works
- Discovery to understand current device estate, user roles, and risk drivers
- Define device categories and ownership models in scope
- Agree security and data protection controls for each category
- Design Intune and Entra alignment covering enrolment, MAM, and access
- Produce rollout approach including pilots, communications, and success measures
Engagement Options
- Strategy Only - Device ownership policy and high-level control model
- Strategy + Design - Policy plus Intune and Conditional Access design
- Strategy + Rollout Plan - Design with pilot and adoption planning
