Compliance Policy Strength
The question it answers: Which compliance policies are too weak to trust - long grace periods, no password or encryption, no minimum OS?
Conditional Access trusts ‘compliant’ devices - so compliance is only as strong as the policies behind it. A long grace period, no password or encryption requirement, no minimum OS or allowed jailbroken devices make ‘compliant’ mean little. Compliance Setting Failures shows which devices fail; this report shows how high the bar is.
