Microsoft Intune: Week of May 26, 2026

Role-based access control

Intune RBAC roles have access to Copilot in Intune

When Microsoft Intune is enabled as a data source in Security Copilot, by default:

• The Microsoft Entra ID Intune Administrator role automatically inherits Security Copilot owner access to Copilot in Intune.
• All the other built-in and custom Intune role-based access (RBAC) roles automatically inherit Security Copilot contributor access to Copilot in Intune.

Intune admins can use Security Copilot capabilities in Intune without requiring more role assignments.

Previously, access to Copilot in Intune required a separate role assignment in Security Copilot or a Microsoft Entra ID role, like the Intune Administrator role.

This update reduces access friction and simplifies Copilot onboarding for organizations.
