Over the coming weeks I’ll have time to dig into these in more detail, but for now here are the related blog posts for the announcements.

New in Intune: Conditional access for browsers, Dynamics CRM Online and Cisco ISE
With the latest Intune service update, there is a further expansion of the conditional access capabilities, which allows you to manage access to corporate email, files and other resources based on customisable conditions that ensure security and compliance, including location, risk, user, device, and app compliance. As conditions shift, access policies which are defined by IT are triggered to ensure that your corporate data is protected. And all this is done without on-premises gateways or appliances.
