Microsoft Endpoint & Security Control Plane Assurance

Prove your endpoint and security controls are aligned before remediation, migration, or recovery work begins.

Endpoint Assurance Group helps MSPs, Microsoft partners, security firms, and enterprise IT teams identify control-plane risk across Intune, Entra ID, Defender, Conditional Access, Secure Score, Autopilot, Windows 11, SCCM/MECM transition, and post-incident recovery environments.

This is more than an Intune assessment.

Endpoint problems are often caused by misalignment across identity, device management, endpoint security, compliance, app deployment, legacy controls, and recovery readiness. The review is designed to show what is working, what is risky, what is duplicated, what is conflicting, and what should be fixed first.

Control Plane

Endpoint Control Plane Risk Review

A focused review of Intune, device identity, enrollment, Autopilot, assignments, policy sprawl, and Windows 11 readiness.

  • Duplicate Intune/Entra devices
  • Autopilot and ESP risk
  • Configuration, compliance, update, and app assignment issues
Identity

Entra ID & Conditional Access Review

A practical review of privileged access, MFA, Conditional Access, risky users, guest exposure, enterprise apps, and OAuth consent risk.

  • Admin role exposure
  • Break-glass and CA exclusions
  • Guest and stale identity risk
Security Posture

Secure Score & Microsoft Security Posture

Translate Secure Score, control profiles, quick wins, and Microsoft security recommendations into a client-ready remediation roadmap.

  • High-value score improvements
  • Business-risk impact
  • 30/60/90-day security roadmap
Defender

Defender & Endpoint Security Alignment

Review Defender signals and endpoint controls across onboarding, alerts, ASR, AV, EDR, BitLocker, Firewall, and tamper protection.

  • Defender onboarding gaps
  • Endpoint security policy alignment
  • Incident and alert posture
Recovery

Post-Incident Recovery-to-Modern-Management

Help security firms, MSPs, and enterprises recover endpoints and identity controls while moving toward a clean modern-management state.

  • Re-enrollment and rebuild readiness
  • Stale/compromised device cleanup
  • Recovery-to-controlled-state roadmap
Partner Delivery

MSP & Microsoft Partner Support

Senior subcontract, fractional architect, escalation, and assessment/remediation support without adding full-time headcount.

  • Client-ready reports
  • Engineer-ready next steps
  • Short-term or retainer support

Common triggers for a review

The service applies to normal production environments and post-incident recovery. It is not limited to breach scenarios.

Version 10-aligned assessment coverage

The public service is aligned to the same coverage model as the Version 10 script direction: Intune, Entra ID, Conditional Access, Secure Score, Defender, device identity, app deployment, Windows servicing, legacy overlap, and recovery readiness.

Deliverables that help teams act.

The goal is not a long generic assessment. The goal is a clear, risk-ranked path from current state to controlled state.

Discover

Collect evidence from Intune, Entra ID, Conditional Access, Secure Score, Defender, and endpoint security controls.

Normalize

Group findings into control-plane domains so duplicated, conflicting, or weak controls are easier to understand.

Prioritize

Rank findings by business impact, technical risk, remediation effort, and quick-win potential.

Roadmap

Provide executive findings, engineer-ready next steps, and 30/60/90-day remediation sequencing.
