Windows 8.1 provides IT managers with an enterprise management solution to help manage company security policies and business applications, while helping ensure users have enhanced privacy on their personal devices. A built-in management component communicates with an enterprise management service. There are two parts to the Windows management component: • The enrollment agent, which enrolls and configures the device so that it can communicate with an enterprise management service. • The management agent, which periodically synchronizes with the management service to check for updates and apply the latest policies set by IT. Third-party mobile device management (MDM) solutions can manage Windows by using the Enterprise Device Management protocol. The built-in management agent can communicate with a third-party service proxy that supports the protocols outlined in this document to perform enterprise management tasks. The third-party service will have the same consistent first-party user experience for enrollment, which also provides simplicity for Windows users. Third-party MDM solutions do not have to create or download a client to manage a Windows-based device.
