Credential Guard - Windows 11 pro/business with O365 Business Premium license
Hi,
We have Windows 11 pro machines with o365 Business Premium license.
I try to enable Credential Guard for the computers but it is not being activated. VBS service is running.
On some websites i read that Windows 11 pro is not supporting Credential Guard and on some other websites it says it is supported. Can someone please tell me if it is supported or not?
Thanks in advance
See the event log:
Device Guard successfully processed the Group Policy: Virtualization Based Security = Enabled, Secure Boot = Enabled, DMA Protection = Enabled, Virtualization Based Code Integrity = Uitgeschakeld, Credential Guard = Disabled, Machine Identity Isolation = Disabled, Kernel-mode Hardware-enforced Stack Protection = Not configured, Reboot required = No, Status = 0x0.
