Self-Service Management -is it worth it?

Hey peeps, I’ve been having a burning question lately about self-service management. I’ve heard the term come up in my circles quite a lot of times and am thinking about adopting it into our company’s ecosystem. Giving users the freedom to solve their issues seems like a good idea, but I have doubts about whether it's just a hype train. I don’t want to make any decisions that I may regret in the future.

Force BitLocker encryption action fails

Hey Community, I’ve been trying to encrypt the Windows devices at work using the Force Bitlocker remote action. But unfortunately, even after multiple attempts I’m encountering an error with the message “A recovery key or Startup key is 'Required' in the associated BitLocker encryption policy. This action cannot be applied when a Recovery key or a Startup key is required. “. Does anyone know a fix for this?

Third-party encryption for Windows devices

Hey, I’m looking to roll out full disk encryption on some Windows devices. I know BitLocker is the native one and works with Hexnode, but I have seen people talking about other third-party encryption tools. Are they worth considering over BitLocker? Would love to hear your thoughts before I lock anything in.

As an admin user, I'd like the ability to control Windows firewall settings by policy instead of through scripts so that we can automate and standardize our firewall settings.
