Microsoft Intune and Defender introduce the Resolve button for iOS/iPadOS, streamlining compliance remediation with a seamless, in-app workflow. This innovation reduces friction, automates security app installs, and ensures users quickly regain secure access to corporate resources.

Revolutionizing Compliance Remediation on iOS with Microsoft Intune and Defender
In today’s fast-paced enterprise world, device compliance is crucial. Yet, remediation workflows often frustrate users with complex steps. Microsoft’s latest update now simplifies this process dramatically for iOS and iPadOS devices. Imagine resolving compliance issues with just a single tap inside your favorite Microsoft 365 apps. This is no longer a future vision—it’s happening now with the new Resolve workflow.“The Resolve button transforms compliance remediation from a tedious chore into a seamless experience,” explains Harish S, Senior Product Manager for Microsoft Defender.This integrated approach addresses a common pain point: users previously had to juggle multiple apps and re-authenticate several times to fix a single compliance issue. Such friction delayed access to critical corporate resources and increased support tickets. The Resolve button changes everything by embedding remediation directly within apps like Outlook and Teams. It detects why a device is non-compliant, installs or launches Microsoft Defender if needed, and rechecks compliance automatically. Then, users return to their workflow uninterrupted.
How the New Workflow Boosts Productivity and Security
This just-in-time (JIT) compliance remediation workflow offers several key benefits. First, it reduces user confusion by providing a guided, automated process to fix common issues. Whether it’s missing permissions, device registration glitches, or active threat remediation, Defender leads users step-by-step. This clarity increases compliance rates and cuts down on IT helpdesk calls. Furthermore, by keeping users inside productivity apps, the solution minimizes distractions. Instead of switching between multiple interfaces, employees stay focused on their work. IT teams also benefit, as the streamlined process boosts overall device security without adding administrative overhead.“This integration is a game-changer for user experience and IT efficiency,” says Rishita Sarin, Product Manager for Microsoft Intune.
