MD-102 Protect devices Practice Question
Exhibit
Refer to the exhibit. $device = Get-MgDeviceManagementManagedDevice -ManagedDeviceId "12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012" $device.ComplianceState Output: "Noncompliant" $device.GetCompliancePolicyNonComplianceReasons() Output: "RequireEncryption"
You are troubleshooting a Windows 10 device that is showing as non-compliant in Intune. The exhibit shows the PowerShell output from the Microsoft Graph API. Based on the output, what is the most likely reason for the non-compliance?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
BitLocker drive encryption is not enabled on the device
The output shows the non-compliance reason is 'RequireEncryption', indicating BitLocker is not enabled. Option A is incorrect because the reason is about encryption, not operating system version. Option C is incorrect because the reason is about encryption, not the Windows version. Option D is incorrect because the reason is about encryption, not antivirus.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
The device does not have a compliant operating system version
Why it's wrong here
The exhibit would identify the actual failing setting; a generic OS version statement does not match the specific policy named in the output. It is tempting because OS version is a frequent compliance rule, and would be correct if the output flagged a minimum operating system build as the failure.
- ✓
BitLocker drive encryption is not enabled on the device
Why this is correct
The Graph API output lists the compliance setting storageRequireEncryption as failing, which maps directly to BitLocker. Since the device reports non-compliant and this is the only failing rule shown, BitLocker encryption is not enabled, so Intune flags the device.
- ✗
The device is not running a supported version of Windows 10
Why it's wrong here
The Graph output would show a specific compliance policy setting failing, not an unsupported Windows build, so this misreads the exhibit. It is tempting because OS version is a common compliance rule, and would be correct if the output flagged a minimum build requirement as the failing setting.
- ✗
The device has a third-party antivirus installed
Why it's wrong here
Third-party antivirus alone does not cause non-compliance unless a policy requires a specific antivirus state; the exhibit would name that setting. It is tempting because antivirus status is a common compliance rule, and would be correct if the output showed the antivirus requirement failing.
