Windows 11 has new features including facial recognition functionality. We are not using it yet, but we will implement it in the future. We just completed migrating the last device to Windows 11 yesterday. Eventually, we will start using those features through InTune, where you can enable configurations and run partial scripts against your devices. It is very effective. The only limitation is the BIOS access for scripting. Though scripting is possible, it requires having personnel who are knowledgeable about these systems. A dedicated team of people is necessary.
I am using Microsoft BitLocker. I am working on Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager. I only use Microsoft BitLocker and no other features. There was one request from a client who asked to migrate to Microsoft BitLocker because it was not working fine for him. The administration depended on Group Policy, not similar to System Center, which is easier. The reporting was very helpful for him.
We encrypt our devices, drives, and certain folders based on their importance. It's very intuitive. The user interface makes it easy for us to encrypt the content of a drive or folder.
We use BitLocker to secure external disks according to security policy. Every external disk, regardless of size, is encrypted with BitLocker for everyday use. The password is securely stored in a designated location. Additionally, client PCs are also equipped with BitLocker for basic security measures. BitLocker serves as a layer of security for any external drives users use, ensuring that any data stored on them, whether for local backups or important files, remains protected.

Encrypting the help desk system with BitLocker serves as a crucial security measure. If a laptop or device falls into unauthorized hands, the encryption ensures that data cannot be decrypted without proper authentication which enhances system security and provides a reliable recovery mechanism to safeguard sensitive information.
I use BitLocker to keep our work computers and files safe. Since we deal with sensitive data, I asked the developers to turn on BitLocker on their computers. This makes sure that our information stays private and secure.
It maintains security on my computer. Since I travel a lot, it gives me confidence that if, for some reason, my computer is lost, my data won't be compromised.

We are primarily using the solution for all endpoints first. We are going to protect all endpoints in the organization. The endpoint is any computer with Windows 10 or Windows 11. We use the feature device encryption and file encryption, basically.
All of our hard drives are BitLocker-protected, and we use only protected USB sticks. We have no right to put unprotected USB sticks in our work notebooks, we must install password locks on the device and for notebook usage. I don't have any special knowledge or experience with such encryption, but I know that all of my hard drives are secure. We use Microsoft BitLocker for security. If I lose my work computer or it is stolen, no one will be able to read the files on my hard drive. I have a unique password.

We encrypt devices and disks that have the potential to be taken off-site, such as laptops, tablets, USB sticks, and USB disks. Basically, we encrypt any medium that has to be taken off-site. If we're giving out a USB stick to somebody, it is BitLocker encrypted. If somebody has to use a memory stick, the only way it gets out is if it is encrypted. We use the version that is native to an operating system.

BitLocker is a feature of which enables hard drive encryption. It's similar to Symantec Endpoint Encryption. For us, both go hand-in-hand, however, BitLocker has an advantage in that it stores the key in TPM.
We do a lot of data analysis for various companies with things like customer and product profitability models and cost modeling in terms of transport. A lot of operational business-type data analysis.

We provide services for our clients but not for BitLocker specifically. We are a local MSP partner, so we sell different solutions but we also manage existing customers and the products they use. Our clients' primary use case is for endpoint protection.

We use the solution ncrypt any agency data . We probably have about 3,800 users on 5,000 plus computers and there are a variety of roles with some people doing data entry all the way through to system administrators. We're a statewide agency. We'll probably increase usage in another few years when we have more computers. I work as the Desktop Operations Manager in the company and we're a customer of Microsoft.

The primary use case of this solution is to encrypt all of our laptops. If they are ever lost then they are useless to anybody, unless they have the key. Our keys are stored in our Active Directory, making it impossible for anyone to decrypt what we have in our devices.

I am a solution provider in Congo and I propose products such as Microsoft BitLocker to my customers. My clients use this solution to protect their data in cases where computers are stolen. In this region, theft of computers from companies is quite common and the data that is stored needs to be protected.
BitLocker is a full disk encryption solution that protects your data from theft, hacking, and loss. BitLocker achieves this by encrypting the entire drive that hosts your operating system and all your data. BitLocker can work on all operating systems, drives, or devices, including portable storage devices.
After BitLocker completes the data encryption, it generates a recovery key. Only those with the correct encryption key will be able to decrypt and access the encrypted files and...
