BitLocker Drive Encryption Deployment: Protecting Stolen Corporate Laptops with Intune & Active Directory in Kenya

Physical Laptop Theft: What Happens to Your Data?

Laptops left inside parked vehicles or stolen during commutes in Nairobi present a catastrophic breach risk if drives are unencrypted. A thief can simply remove the NVMe SSD, plug it into a USB enclosure, and read every client contract and database backup. Enforcing hardware-anchored BitLocker (AES-256) backed by TPM 2.0 ensures that the drive cannot be read without the cryptographic recovery key securely backed up to Active Directory or Microsoft Entra ID.
