Configuration Manager supports compliance features to help organizations meet national, regional, and industry-specific regulations. Configuration Manager aligns with Microsoft's commitment to data protection, privacy, and compliance, by offering tools to help secure and manage data effectively.
Shared responsibility model
Microsoft ensures that Configuration Manager complies with various industry standards and regulatory frameworks. However, customers are responsible for implementing their data protection and compliance strategies to align with their specific organizational requirements.
Compliance dependencies
Configuration Manager leverages other Microsoft services for compliance, including:
- Microsoft Entra ID: Identity and access management.
- Microsoft Intune: Enforces device compliance and conditional access policies.
Microsoft Intune capabilities for compliance
Microsoft Intune helps enforce compliance policies and protect organizational data specifically for Intune:
- Conditional Access: Ensures only compliant devices and apps managed by Intune can access sensitive data. See Conditional Access.
- Device Compliance Enforcement: Enforces device compliance policies to meet organizational security requirements. See Device Compliance Policies.
For more information about Intune compliance capabilities, visit the Microsoft Intune documentation.

It provides full BitLocker lifecycle management that can replace the use of Microsoft BitLocker Administration and Monitoring. For more information, see Plan for BitLocker management.
