[All NCP-MCI-6.10 Questions]

An administrator needs to enable Windows Defender Credential Guard to comply with company policy.

The new VM configurations include:

Legacy BIOS

4 vCPUs

8 GB RAM

Windows Server 2019

What must be changed in order to properly enable Windows Defender Credential Guard?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Windows Defender Credential Guard requires UEFI firmware and Secure Boot to function properly.

Option B (Enable UEFI with Secure Boot) is correct:

Credential Guard requires a UEFI-based boot mode rather than Legacy BIOS.

Secure Boot ensures only trusted OS components load, reducing attack surface for credential theft.

Option A (Update vCPU to 8) is incorrect:

Increasing vCPUs does not impact Credential Guard compatibility.

Option C (Use Windows Server 2022) is incorrect:

Windows Server 2019 supports Credential Guard; upgrading to 2022 is not required.

Option D (Update Memory to 16GB) is incorrect:

Credential Guard has no minimum RAM requirement beyond general OS needs.

I'd choose B too. Upgrading to UEFI with Secure Boot is the only way to go. It's like trying to run a Ferrari engine in a Yugo, you know?

Option B is the clear winner. Imagine trying to enable Credential Guard on a legacy BIOS system - that's just a recipe for disaster!

B is the way to go. Updating the vCPUs or memory won't do anything for Credential Guard. And Windows Server 2022 is overkill.
