Use Trend Micro Mobile Security as a Service with Microsoft Intune
Control mobile device access to corporate resources using Conditional Access based on risk assessment conducted by Trend Micro Mobile Security as a Service, a mobile threat defense (MTD) solution that integrates with Microsoft Intune. Risk is assessed based on telemetry collected from devices protected by the Trend Micro Mobile Security as a Service, including:
- Malicious apps installed
- Malicious network behavior and profiles
- Operating system vulnerabilities
- Device misconfiguration
You can configure Conditional Access policies based on Trend Micro Mobile Security as a Service’s risk assessment, enabled through Intune device compliance policies for enrolled devices. You can set up your policies to allow or block noncompliant devices from accessing corporate resources based on detected threats.
For more information about how to integrate Trend Micro with Microsoft Intune, see Setting up Intune integration in the Trend Micro Mobile Security documentation.

How do Intune and the Trend Micro MTD connector help protect your company resources?
The Trend Micro Mobile Security as a Service mobile agent app for Android and iOS/iPadOS captures file system, network stack, device, and application telemetry where available, then sends the telemetry data to Trend Micro Mobile Security as a Service to assess the device's risk for mobile threats.
Support for enrolled devices - Intune device compliance policy includes a rule for MTD, which can use risk assessment information from Trend Micro. When the MTD rule is enabled, Intune evaluates device compliance with the policy that you enabled. If the device is found noncompliant, users are blocked access to corporate resources, such as Exchange Online and SharePoint Online. Users also receive guidance from the Trend Micro Mobile Security as a Service mobile agent app installed on their devices to resolve the issue and regain access to corporate resources. To support using Trend Micro with enrolled devices:
- Add MTD apps to devices (This is done automatically when setting up Trend Micro Mobile Security as a Service integration)
- Create a device compliance policy that supports MTD
- Enable the MTD connector in Intune
