A company policy requires that all mobile devices used for work be managed via Microsoft Intune. An employee loses a company-issued smartphone. The IT administrator needs to remotely wipe the device to prevent data loss. Which prerequisite must have been completed on the device for this action to be possible?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Good practice is not just finding the correct option. The wrong answers often show the exact trap the exam wants you to fall into.
A
Distractor review
BitLocker encryption enabled
BitLocker encrypts the device's storage but does not enable remote wipe; it is a separate security measure.
B
Best answer
Device enrolled in Intune
Enrollment in Intune is required for the administrator to push management commands, including remote wipe.
C
Distractor review
Find My Device activated
Find My Device is a consumer feature for locating devices; it does not typically allow enterprise remote wipe.
D
Distractor review
VPN profile installed
A VPN profile establishes a secure connection to the corporate network but does not provide device management or remote wipe capabilities.
Common exam trap
Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword
Many certification questions include familiar terms but test a specific constraint. Read the exact wording before choosing an answer that is generally true but wrong for this case.
