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?
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.
