AI-Driven Endpoint Privilege Management (EPM) in Intune: The Next Step
AI-Driven Endpoint Privilege Management (EPM) in Intune: Imagine waking up to this headline in the news:
Major Enterprise Faces $50 Million Breach Due to Uncontrolled Admin Privileges
The IT team is under fire. The CIO is being questioned by the board. The company just failed its compliance audit.
And it all started because one user had admin rights when they shouldn’t have.
THIS is the reality for thousands of organizations right now. Privilege escalation attacks are the #1 tactic used by cybercriminals.
What’s the Result?
Every unmanaged admin right is a potential breach waiting to happen. IT teams are overwhelmed handling thousands of admin access requests manually. Malware exploits unmonitored privilege escalation leading to ransomware attacks & compliance failures. No single solution properly integrates AI-powered privilege control across Windows ARM64, Intel, and macOS.
And yet most companies STILL don’t have a proper privilege management system in place.
Now, let’s break down the AI-powered framework that eliminates this risk FOREVER.
A Self-Healing, AI-Powered EPM System That will work 24/7
What If…
Employees got instant admin rights—ONLY when absolutely necessary
✔ Admin privileges automatically revoked themselves when suspicious activity was detected
✔ Every Windows ARM64, Intel, and macOS device followed the same EPM strategy
✔ Privilege escalations were intelligently approved based on AI-driven risk scoring
✔ CISOs & IT teams had full compliance logs without any manual tracking
The AI-Powered, Self-Healing EPM Framework
Pillar 1: AI-Driven Just-In-Time Privilege Escalation No More Permanent Admin Rights
Problem:
Employees need admin access to install apps, update software, or run commands.
If IT denies access, work slows down.
If IT grants admin rights permanently, security risks explode.
Solution:
AI dynamically grants temporary admin rights only when needed.
Implementation:
✔ Intune Dynamic Groups auto-segment users by security risk level.
✔ Power Automate & Microsoft Defender grant admin rights ONLY if AI approves.
✔ Admin access is revoked after a specific action—no human intervention needed.
A developer needs to install VS Code → AI checks risk level.
If safe → Admin rights granted for 20 minutes → Auto-revoked.
If risky → Multi-factor authentication (MFA) required before granting access.
Result:
Users work without delays.
Security is 100% maintained.
IT is free from handling repetitive admin requests.
Pillar 2: Self-Healing Security – Real-Time Threat Detection & Auto-Revoke System
Problem:
Users receive admin rights but never give them up, creating security holes.
Malware often abuses admin privilege to execute ransomware.
The teams don’t know when admin rights are being misused.
Solution:
AI monitors admin sessions and automatically revokes access the moment a threat is detected.
Implementation:
✔ Microsoft Defender for Endpoint analyzes admin session activity.
✔ If risky behavior is detected → admin rights revoked instantly.
✔ All security logs are automatically generated for audits.
Result:
No malware can hijack admin privileges.
No insider threats admin abuse is instantly stopped.
100% real-time monitoring of every privilege session.
Pillar 3: AI-Based Risk Scoring – Smart Decision-Making for Every Privilege Request
Problem:
IT teams treat every admin request the same, which is inefficient.
Some users need access more than others but IT has no way to differentiate.
Security needs a smarter way to filter out high-risk requests from safe ones.
Solution: AI assigns real-time risk scores to users & devices to determine privilege eligibility.
Result:
Security teams can focus on REAL threats instead of filtering low-risk users.
Reduces admin requests by up to 80%.
Only truly necessary admin escalations go through, reducing risk.
Case Study: How a Fortune 500 Company Eliminated Privilege Escalation Risks with AI-Driven EPM
The Challenge:
5,000+ admin requests per month were overwhelming IT teams.
Users frequently installed unauthorized software, causing compliance failures.
Malware exploited admin privileges, leading to security breaches.
The Solution:
✔ Deployed AI-driven privilege escalation across all Windows & Mac devices.
✔ Implemented auto-revoke security policies to eliminate lingering admin access.
✔ Integrated AI-based risk scoring for real-time security enforcement.
The Results (After 6 Months):
IT workload for admin requests dropped by 85%.
100% reduction in privilege-based security breaches.
Audit compliance success rate improved by 96%.
Company saved over $3.5M in reduced IT costs & security incidents.
