 Device profiles allow you to add and configure settings, and then push these settings to devices in your organization. You have some options when creating policies:
 
 - **Administrative templates**: On Windows 10/11 devices, these templates are ADMX settings that you configure. If you're familiar with ADMX policies or group policy objects (GPO), then using administrative templates is a natural step to Microsoft Intune and Endpoint Manager.

 Microsoft Intune includes settings and features you can enable or disable on different devices within your organization. These settings and features are added to "configuration profiles". You can create profiles for different devices and different platforms, including iOS/iPadOS, Android device administrator, Android Enterprise, and Windows. Then, use Intune to apply or "assign" the profile to the devices.
 
 As part of your mobile device management (MDM) solution, use these configuration profiles to complete different tasks. Intune has many templates that include groups of settings that are specific to a feature, such as certificates, VPN, email, and more.

Microsoft Intune includes built-in Wi-Fi settings that can be deployed to users and devices in your organization. This group of settings is called a "profile", and can be assigned to different users and groups. Once assigned, your users get access your organization's Wi-Fi network without configuring it themselves.
