Can Intune detect if a device is in motion and block it?

Answer 1

@Neuber-Wacek, Julia, Thanks for posting in Q&A.

From your description, could you please identify something to us?

Could you confirm us if your device was lost or stolen? If yes, you can try the Locate device feature in Intune, which collects information about a device's last known location every 8 hours or when a device is signed in with Intune. But make sure your device has location services turned on.

Or do you just want to check if the device is in motion. You can also consider the Locate device feature in Intune, because it collects information about a device's last known location every 8 hours, or when a device checks in with Intune.

For blocking it, could you confirm us if you are trying to prevent the device from moving or preventing the device from accessing company data, for preventing the device from moving, there is no relevant feature in Intune, for preventing the device from accessing company data, you can consider Conditional Access Policies.

Hope above information can help you.
