MD-102 Protect devices Practice Question
A company uses Intune to manage Android Enterprise devices. The administrator deployed a compliance policy that requires encryption and a minimum OS version. Some devices are not showing as compliant even though they meet the requirements. The administrator suspects a time delay. What is the default compliance check interval for Android Enterprise devices in Intune?
⚠ Common exam trap
It's easy for candidates to confuse the default compliance check interval for Android Enterprise with the shorter intervals used by other platforms (like iOS/iPadOS at 1 hour) or with the legacy Android device administrator interval (24 hours), leading them to select an incorrect option.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Every 8 hours
The default compliance check interval for Android Enterprise devices in Intune is every 8 hours. This interval determines how often devices re-evaluate their compliance status against assigned policies, and it is not configurable for Android Enterprise devices. The administrator's suspicion of a time delay is valid because even if a device meets the requirements, it will not report as compliant until the next scheduled check occurs.
