- question: |
What are the implications of using the sleep or hibernate power management options?
answer: |
BitLocker on operating system drives in its basic configuration (with a TPM but without other startup authentication) provides extra security for the hibernate mode. However, BitLocker provides greater security when it is configured to use an another startup authentication factor (TPM+PIN, TPM+USB, or TPM+PIN+USB) with the hibernate mode. This method is more secure because returning from hibernation requires authentication. In sleep mode, computer is vulnerable against direct memory access attacks, since it remains unprotected data in RAM. Therefore, for improved security, we recommend disabling sleep mode and that you use TPM+PIN for the authentication method. Startup authentication can be configured by using [Group Policy](./bitlocker-group-policy-settings.md) or Mobile Device Management with the [BitLocker CSP](/windows/client-management/mdm/bitlocker-csp).
