FTFY: Bitlocker encrypts the hard drive contents with the sole purpose of making it a lot harder to access "data at rest" Cheers Ken From: listsad...@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com> [mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com] On Behalf Of James Hill Sent: Monday, 13 May 2013 2:42 PM To: ntsysadm@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:ntsysadm@lists.myitforum.com> Subject: [NTSysADM] RE: Bit looker? Maybe I'm missing something here but assuming you are talking about Bitlocker then any user can use the device if they have a user account and password that is permitted to logon to that device (just like any other non bitlockered device) Bitlocker encrypts the hard drive contents with the sole purpose of making it a lot harder to access those contents if the device is stolen etc. In a previous life we only ran Bitlocker on Windows 7 laptops as they were the most high risk (mobile and generally used by senior management folk).

I have been trying to do some research on Bit looker to see if it is the right solution to secure the Surface Pro but it seems that most of the videos from MMS and TechEd where not posted or taken down. If I have a Surface Pro running Windows 8 Enterprise connected back to the corporate network with Direct Access and I use MBAM to deploy Bit Looker can any domain user log into the device or is the device "locked down" for only one user?
