Question

You have a Microsoft 365 E5 tenant that contains 500 Windows 10 devices. The devices are enrolled in Microsoft Intune. You plan to use Endpoint analytics to identify hardware issues. You need to enable Windows health monitoring on the devices to support Endpoint analytics. What should you do?

Options

  • AConfigure the Endpoint analytics baseline regression threshold.
  • BCreate a configuration profile.
  • CCreate a Windows 10 Security Baseline profile
  • DCreate a compliance policy.

Explanation

Option B is correct because Windows health monitoring is enabled through a configuration profile in Intune - specifically, you create a Windows 10/11 configuration profile using the "Windows health monitoring" template (under the Device Configuration > Templates path), which deploys the required telemetry settings to devices at scale.

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • A (Baseline regression threshold): This setting controls alerting thresholds for score changes in Endpoint analytics - it's a reporting/notification setting, not a data collection mechanism.
  • C (Windows 10 Security Baseline): Security baselines harden device security settings (like BitLocker, Defender policies); they don't configure diagnostic/health telemetry for Endpoint analytics.
  • D (Compliance policy): Compliance policies define rules devices must meet to be considered "compliant" (e.g., require encryption); they don't push monitoring configurations to devices.

Memory tip: Think of it this way - configuration profiles configure, compliance policies police. Any time you need to push a setting or feature to a device (monitoring, VPN, Wi-Fi, certificates), reach for a configuration profile. Endpoint analytics needs data flowing to Microsoft - that's a configuration push, not a compliance check.
