Assessment Title
Rule Text
Windows 11 information systems must use BitLocker to encrypt all disks to protect the confidentiality and integrity of all information at rest.
Description
Discussion Text
If data at rest is unencrypted, it is vulnerable to disclosure. Even if the operating system enforces permissions on data access, an adversary can remove nonvolatile memory and read it directly, thereby circumventing operating system controls. Encrypting the data ensures that confidentiality is protected even when the operating system is not running.
