Installing SentinelOne Windows Agents with Intune
Updated this week

Objective:

Microsoft Intune is a Mobile Device Management (MDM) tool to build packages, manage inventory and images, and run remote updates. You can use Intune, or other MDM tools, to install the SentinelOne Windows Agent. This article will show you how to install the Agent with an Intune Win32 App Package.
