Quick Answer
The answer is Minimum OS version, along with Require BitLocker and a password policy, as these are three of the configurable settings in a Microsoft Intune Windows 10 compliance policy. This is correct because Intune compliance policies enforce security baselines by checking device configuration against defined rules; for Windows 10, you can require BitLocker drive encryption to protect data at rest, mandate a device password or PIN for authentication, and specify a minimum OS version to ensure devices run a supported, patched build. On the MD-102 exam, this tests your ability to distinguish compliance policy settings from configuration profiles—a common trap is confusing BitLocker settings in compliance (which only checks if encryption is on) versus endpoint protection policies (which configure encryption details). Remember the mnemonic "BOP" for BitLocker, OS version, and Password to recall the three core compliance checks for Windows 10.
This MD-102 practice question tests your understanding of prepare infrastructure for devices. This is a configuration task: choose the command set that satisfies every stated requirement. Small differences — like 'secret' vs 'password' or 'transport input ssh' vs 'all' — change whether the answer is correct. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.
You need to configure device compliance policies in Microsoft Intune for Windows 10 devices. Which THREE settings can you include in a compliance policy? (Choose three.)
Require BitLocker.
BitLocker is a device health setting in compliance policies.
Maximum OS version.
Why wrong: Maximum OS version is not a supported compliance setting.
Allow camera.
Why wrong: Camera setting is a configuration profile, not compliance.
Require a password to unlock the device.
Password settings are part of compliance.
Minimum OS version.
Compliance policies can require a minimum OS version.
Answer choices
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
Require BitLocker.
Option A is correct because BitLocker is a built-in Windows 10 encryption feature that can be required via a device compliance policy in Microsoft Intune. When you configure a compliance policy for Windows 10, you can set the 'Require BitLocker' setting to 'Require' to ensure the device's operating system drive is encrypted, which is a common security baseline for corporate devices.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

Common exam traps
The trap here is that candidates often confuse compliance policy settings (which enforce security baselines like encryption and OS version minimums) with device configuration profile settings (which manage features like camera permissions), leading them to incorrectly select 'Allow camera' as a compliance option.
Detailed technical explanation
Intune compliance policies for Windows 10 leverage the Windows Health Attestation Service (HAS) to verify device integrity, including BitLocker status, Secure Boot, and Code Integrity. The 'Require a password to unlock the device' setting enforces a device lock policy that integrates with the Windows 10 'Allow device lock' CSP (Policy CSP - DeviceLock), and the 'Minimum OS version' setting uses the OSVersion property from the device's enrollment record to block non-compliant builds, which is critical for maintaining security patch levels.
Key takeaway
Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Real-world example
A cloud solutions architect for a retail company is evaluating services for a new workload. The correct answer here reflects best practice for the specific scenario described — not a general cloud recommendation. Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option. Cloud exam questions reward reading the constraint carefully: the same technology can be right or wrong depending on the use case.
