[SOLVED] WADS – Bitlocker Activation

Hello,
We are currently using MDT for deployment. We have started testing with WADS.
Regarding the BitLocker part, we are uploading the encryption keys to Active Directory via MDT task sequences.
Can we do this with WADS? Via PowerShell?

Hi Mikaël,

it should reappear automatically after the reboot if the GPO correctly specifies uploading to Active Directory, and we should be able to force it with a PowerShell command if it takes too long.

Alternatively, there's also a WAPT package that uploads the encrypted key from the admin certificates present on the machine to WAPT.

Regards,

Denis

Hello,
thank you for the feedback.
I did indeed create a WAPT package that launches a PowerShell script for encryption and retrieves the key at the Active Directory level.
I'm handling the restart at the end of the post-installation script.

Thank you.
