  • End Users: Improved experience with secure access to multiple work accounts.
  • Compliance Officers: Enhanced ability to demonstrate data segregation on mobile devices.

The Action

  2. Communicate to users how to add and manage multiple Intune-protected accounts in Outlook for Android.
  3. Verify that conditional access policies are correctly applied to all relevant MAM-protected accounts.
  4. Monitor Intune compliance reports for Android devices utilising multiple MAM accounts.
