Windows Information Protection Policies Using Intune Troubleshooting Tips

Let’s understand Windows Information Protection policies using Intune. Also, I share troubleshooting tips through registry entries and event logs. Intune app protection policies can be implemented using Windows 10 Windows Information Protection (WIP) feature.

WIP gives you a new way to manage data policy enforcement for apps and documents on Windows 10 devices. In this post, you learn how to build WIP policies using Intune for MDM enrolled Windows 10 devices.

WIP is just an accidental data leakage protection feature which is inbuild to Windows 10 operating system. As per Microsoft recommendation, WIP should be used along with other data/device protection solutions to have complete protection of data.
