What it checks
Configuration profiles are only effective when properly assigned to the correct device or user groups. Profiles assigned to overly broad groups may cause conflicts or apply settings to inappropriate devices, while narrowly assigned profiles may leave devices unconfigured. Analyzing assignment coverage ensures that security configurations reach all intended endpoints without conflicts.
Recommended value
All security-critical profiles assigned to appropriate groups with no unassigned critical profiles and no conflicting assignments
Remediation
Review the assignment status and target groups for each configuration profile, paying attention to profiles with errors or conflicts. Resolve any profile conflicts by adjusting assignments, merging similar profiles, or using filters to target specific device characteristics. Ensure security-critical profiles such as BitLocker, firewall, and antivirus settings are assigned to all applicable devices through comprehensive group membership.
Fixture-proven verdicts
Every verdict below is proven by a golden fixture in the module's gating test suite. This table derives from the last green run; it cannot be edited by hand.
| Scenario | Expected verdict |
|---|---|
| clean | PASS |
| known-bad | FAIL |
| throttled | Not Assessed |
