Managed IT · Endpoint Management
Endpoint management is the centralised configuration, hardening and compliance enforcement of laptops, desktops and mobile devices through a unified endpoint management platform such as Microsoft Intune. Evolvice designs and operates the configuration baselines, compliance policies and EDR coverage that keep enrolled devices continuously within a defined security posture.
Overview
Endpoint estates grow inconsistently as devices are enrolled through different processes, imaging methods and admins over time, producing configuration drift that undermines every other security control. Compliance policies exist on paper but are not enforced with conditional access, and EDR agents are frequently missing on a meaningful share of the fleet without anyone noticing. We establish and maintain a single enforced baseline across the device estate.

Patterns we repeatedly find when taking over an existing endpoint estate.

Posture
Every endpoint is a potential entry point, and its risk contribution is determined by how consistently configuration, patching and monitoring are enforced over its entire lifecycle, not by how it was configured on day one. A compliance policy that is not tied to conditional access is a report, not a control.
We operate endpoint management as continuous baseline enforcement, closing the gap between documented policy and actual device state.
Definition
Unified Endpoint Management is the centralised administration of configuration, security policy and application deployment across desktop, laptop and mobile devices from a single management platform, regardless of operating system.
Delivery model
A repeatable five-step engagement we run for every device estate we take over.
Inventory of all enrolled devices, current configuration profiles and compliance state, benchmarked against CIS or equivalent hardening standards.
A single hardened configuration baseline per device class (Windows, macOS, mobile), covering encryption, firewall, update and application control settings.
Compliance policies tied directly to conditional access, so non-compliant devices are automatically restricted from corporate resources.
Automated reconciliation between enrolled devices and active EDR agents, closing coverage gaps and alerting on agent health failures.
Monthly review of drift, new device onboarding via zero-touch provisioning, and baseline updates as security requirements evolve.
