Microsoft EMS is now Microsoft EMS... Let us explain
As of this morning, the Microsoft Enterprise Mobility Suite (EMS) is now known as Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS).
All jokes about naming confusion aside, the new offering has rolled in more security-minded offerings and capabilities. More details can be found here: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/enterprisemobility/2016/07/07/introducing-enterprise-mobility-security/
