Require Device Compliance for All Users for Technology & Software

How technology & software organizations should implement DV-03 for Microsoft 365 security and compliance.

For technology & software companies using Microsoft 365, require device compliance for all users is a security priority. This guide explains how DV-03 helps technology & software organizations protect their identity infrastructure while meeting industry-specific compliance mandates.

Why Technology & Software Organizations Need This Control

Technology & Software organizations face specific regulatory requirements including soc2, iso27001, cis. The DV-03 control helps address these requirements by:

  • A Conditional Access policy requires compliant or hybrid-joined device for all users
  • All cloud applications are covered
  • Emergency access accounts are excluded

Unmanaged devices can have keyloggers, malware, or lack encryption. Requiring device compliance for all users ensures corporate data is only accessed from endpoints you control. This is a comprehensive Zero Trust control.

Industry-Specific Considerations

When implementing DV-03 in a technology & software environment, consider:

  • **Regulatory requirements**: soc2, iso27001, cis may mandate specific configurations
  • **Risk tolerance**: Technology & Software organizations typically have moderate to low risk tolerance
  • **Audit frequency**: Plan for regular compliance reviews
  • **Documentation**: Maintain detailed records for regulatory inspections

How to Configure

DV-03 requires the following configuration:

  • A Conditional Access policy requires compliant or hybrid-joined device for all users
  • All cloud applications are covered
  • Emergency access accounts are excluded

Creates CA policy requiring device compliance in report-only mode. PREREQUISITE: Intune enrollment required.

With TrueConfig, you can implement this control automatically using our one-click remediation feature.

Technology Compliance Requirements

Technology organizations must comply with these frameworks, all of which address require device compliance for all users:

Why This Control Matters for Technology

Unmanaged devices can have keyloggers, malware, or lack encryption. Requiring device compliance for all users ensures corporate data is only accessed from endpoints you control. This is a comprehensive Zero Trust control.

Common threats in technology & software:

  • Source code theft and IP exfiltration
  • Supply chain attacks through dependencies
  • Credential compromise in CI/CD pipelines

For technology & software organizations, DV-03 is a key component of a compliant Microsoft 365 security posture. TrueConfig helps you implement and maintain this control while meeting industry-specific requirements.
