MD-102 Protect devices Practice Question
Your company uses Microsoft Intune to manage iOS devices. You have an app protection policy that requires a PIN to access corporate data. Users report that they can access corporate data without entering a PIN after the first time. You want to ensure that the PIN is required every time the app is opened. What should you configure?
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
✓
Set 'PIN reset after number of hours' to 0.
Setting 'PIN reset after number of hours' to 0 forces the user to enter a PIN every time the app is opened, regardless of whether they previously entered it. Option A is incorrect because 'Require PIN to access' is already set to 'Yes' but does not control PIN frequency; the PIN can be cached for a session. Option B is incorrect because requiring a device PIN instead of an app PIN changes the authentication method, but the issue is about requiring the app PIN on every open, not changing to device PIN. Option D is incorrect because 'Timeout' controls how long the app can be inactive before requiring a PIN, not upon initial app launch.
