The TPM protects against threats including PIN brute-force attacks on lost or stolen devices. After too many incorrect guesses, the device locks. IT admins can set security policies for PINs, such as complexity, length, and expiration requirements. The TPM protects against threats including PIN brute-force attacks on lost or stolen devices.

If you're using a device without built-in biometrics, Windows Hello has been further strengthened by default to use Virtualization-based Security (VBS) to isolate credentials. This added layer of protection safeguards against admin-level attacks. Even if you sign in with a PIN, your credentials remain secure thanks to VBS.
