MD-102 Protect devices Practice Question
An Intune administrator needs to ensure that Windows 10 devices are compliant with security requirements. Which TWO options are valid compliance settings for Windows 10?
⚠ Common exam trap
It's easy for candidates to confuse device-level compliance settings (like OS version and BitLocker) with enrollment properties (device category, enrollment type) or app-level policies (app protection policy), which are managed in different policy types within Intune.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Require BitLocker
Require BitLocker is a valid compliance setting in Microsoft Intune for Windows 10 devices. It ensures that BitLocker drive encryption is enabled on the system drive, which is a critical security requirement for data protection. This setting can be enforced via a compliance policy to mark devices as noncompliant if encryption is not active.
