Hi,
To find out who sent remote commands in Microsoft Intune, you can use the activity logs available in the admin interface. Here are the steps:
1. Go to Activity Logs
- Open the Microsoft Intune Admin Center
- Navigate to Tenant administration > Audit logs.
2. Filter the Logs
- Use the filtering option to search for specific events, such as:
- Category: "Device actions"
- Activity: The specific action, e.g., "Reset passcode" or "Wipe device."
- Target: The device or user affected by the action.
- You can also specify a date range to narrow your search.
3. Check Who Sent the Command
- In the logs, you will find information about who initiated the action. This is displayed under the field Initiated by or similar.
- It includes:
- The username or email address of the administrator.
- The time the command was sent.
4. Alternative: Logs from the Device
- If it concerns a specific device, you can:
- Go to Devices > Select the device > Device actions.
- Check the details of actions performed on that device.
5. Export Logs (If Needed)
- For more advanced analysis, export the logs and review them in Excel or a SIEM solution (Security Information and Event Management).
6. If Logs Are Missing
- Ensure that logging is enabled in your tenant. Go to Azure Active Directory > Audit logs for more extensive audit data.
- If your organization uses Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, additional insights might be available there.
By following these steps, you can identify which technician or administrator sent the remote command.
I hope this will help you.
