Azure AD and InTune

Joe_Carissimo — Thu, 10 Oct 2024 20:02:14 GMT

Hi Palo Live Community, I'm hoping that someone has worked with Cortex XDR and Azure InTune.

I'm trying to find a dynamic way to apply an extension profile (block USB), in Cortex XDR, targeting specific endpoints that reside in Azure InTune.

Before, I was using Active Directory OUs to target these endpoints but newer endpoints being added to the environment through InTune do not bind to the domain, therefore, don't exist in AD and we're unable to use the AD OUs.

As always, any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Joe

Hello @Joe_Carissimo

Thanks for reaching out on LiveCommunity!

In this case you can create your own dynamic endpoint groups based on either specific tags that you will assign to endpoints that are managed by Intune or you can dynamic groups based on their cloud id and cloud info fields. Similarly you can choose other parameters like IP subnet etc.

Thank you, @nsinghvirk. I think I follow your insights regarding dynamic groups based on cloud info fields. I will have to figure out how to use the Cloud Identity Engine to my advantage. I think I may have to add the Azure cloud directory to my tenant. Thanks again. Joe
