# Overview

This section walks through a full macOS deployment with Microsoft Intune, in the order you would build it: connecting Apple Business Manager, enrolling devices, and layering on the configuration and security policies that make up a production-ready setup. It is written for IT administrators standing up automated device enrollment (ADE) for Mac for the first time, as well as those refining an existing deployment.
