MD-102 Manage and maintain devices Practice Question
Your organization uses Microsoft Intune to manage Windows 11 devices. You need to ensure that devices cannot connect to unsecured Wi-Fi networks. Which policy type should you configure?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many exam-takers confuse a Wi-Fi profile with a device configuration profile or compliance policy, not realizing that only a Wi-Fi profile can enforce the specific security settings required to block unsecured network connections.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Wi-Fi profile.
A Wi-Fi profile in Microsoft Intune is specifically designed to configure Wi-Fi settings on devices, including security protocols and authentication methods. By configuring a Wi-Fi profile to only allow connections to secured networks (e.g., WPA2-Enterprise or WPA3), you can prevent devices from connecting to unsecured Wi-Fi networks. This policy type directly controls the Wi-Fi connection behavior at the device level.
