Episode 62 — Provision EDR, BYOD, and Enterprise Mobility Management
Modern fleets mix corporate-owned devices with bring-your-own-device (BYOD), demanding layered controls. We position Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) as telemetry plus containment for suspicious behavior, Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) or Mobile Device Management (MDM) as the policy engine that enforces configuration, and Mobile Application Management (MAM) as data control inside managed apps for BYOD. You’ll learn enrollment flows, certificate-based trust, compliance checks for OS version and posture, and separation of personal and corporate data via containers. Exam scenarios often hinge on balancing privacy, usability, and security, so we distinguish corporate-owned, personally enabled versus pure BYOD and map appropriate enforcement to each.
Execution details make these distinctions tangible. Patterns include conditional access that requires compliant posture before granting app tokens, EDR isolation that quarantines a host while preserving forensics, and MAM policies that restrict copy-paste, local storage, and sharing to approved apps. We discuss evidence—device compliance reports, EDR alert timelines, wipe confirmations, and inventory reconciled to identity—and error handling when users unenroll, jailbreak, or root devices. Troubleshooting covers certificate expiration breaking enrollment, duplicate identities across directories, and stale devices that pass policy without reporting. The outcome is a practical approach to mobile and desktop fleets that protects corporate data while respecting user boundaries, aligning with exam expectations around risk-based enforcement and verifiable control operation.
