Support for BitLocker Device Encryption on Windows Pro devices

Content

MaaS360 extends BitLocker encryption support for Windows 10 Pro devices. Previously, the feature was limited to Windows 10 Education and Enterprise editions. Note: The existing customers must re-publish the "Require Device Encryption" BitLocker policy on Security policies section to enforce them on Windows 10 Pro devices. Requires MDM Extender agent version 1.90 and Core app version 3.90. The BitLocker Drive Encryption feature is not supported on Windows Home edition.

Note:

• The existing customers must re-publish the BitLocker policies to enforce them on Windows 10 Pro devices.
• Requires MDM Extender agent version 1.9.000 and Core app version 3.90.
• The BitLocker Drive Encryption feature is not supported on Windows Home edition.
• After the devices are encrypted, revoking the policies does not decrypt the drives or delete the recovery passwords from EUP/AD/Azure AD portals.

The BitLocker encryption is not enforced on the devices automatically. MaaS360 sends a notification to prompt the users to encrypt the devices manually.
