Companies that image their own computers using Microsoft System Center 2012 Configuration Manager SP1 (SCCM) or later can use an existing task sequence to [pre-provision BitLocker](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/hh846237.aspx#BKMK_PreProvisionBitLocker) encryption while in Windows Preinstallation Environment (WinPE) and can then [enable protection](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/hh846237.aspx#BKMK_EnableBitLocker). This can help ensure that computers are encrypted from the start, even before users receive them. As part of the imaging process, a company could also decide to use SCCM to pre-set any desired [BitLocker Group Policy](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/ee706521(v=ws.10).aspx).

Enterprises can use [Microsoft BitLocker Administration and Management (MBAM)](https://docs.microsoft.com/microsoft-desktop-optimization-pack/mbam-v25/) to manage client computers with BitLocker that are domain-joined on-premises until [mainstream support ends in July 2019](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/search?alpha=Microsoft%20BitLocker%20Administration%20and%20Monitoring%202.5%20Service%20Pack%201) or they can receive extended support until July 2024. Thus, over the next few years, a good strategy for enterprises will be to plan and move to cloud-based management for BitLocker. When moving to cloud-based management, following these steps could be helpful: Enterprises can use [Microsoft BitLocker Administration and Management (MBAM)](https://docs.microsoft.com/microsoft-desktop-optimization-pack/mbam-v25/) to manage client computers with BitLocker that are domain-joined on-premises until [mainstream support ends in July 2019](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/search?alpha=Microsoft%20BitLocker%20Administration%20and%20Monitoring%202.5%20Service%20Pack%201) or they can receive extended support until July 2024. Thus, over the next few years, a good strategy for enterprises will be to plan and move to cloud-based management for BitLocker. Refer to the [PowerShell examples](#powershell-examples) to see how to store recovery keys in Azure Active Directory (Azure AD).
1. Disable MBAM management and leave MBAM as only a database backup for the recovery key.
2. Join the computers to Azure Active Directory (Azure AD).
3. Use `Manage-bde -protectors -aadbackup` to backup the recovery key to Azure AD.
BitLocker recovery keys can be managed from Azure AD thereafter. The MBAM database does not need to be migrated.
Enterprises that choose to continue managing BitLocker on-premises after MBAM support ends can use the [BitLocker WMI provider class](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/desktop/aa376483) to create a custom management solution.
## Managing devices joined to Azure Active Directory ## Managing devices joined to Azure Active Directory
Devices joined to Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) are managed using Mobile Device Management (MDM) policy from an MDM solution such as [Microsoft Intune](https://www.microsoft.com/cloud-platform/microsoft-intune). BitLocker Device Encryption status can be queried from managed machines via the [Policy Configuration Settings Provider (CSP)](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider), which reports on whether BitLocker Device Encryption is enabled on the device. Compliance with BitLocker Device Encryption policy can be a requirement for [Conditional Access](https://www.microsoft.com/cloud-platform/conditional-access) to services like Exchange Online and SharePoint Online.

Starting with Windows 10 version 1703 (also known as the Windows Creators Update), the enablement of BitLocker can be triggered over MDM either by the [Policy CSP](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider) or the [BitLocker CSP](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/client-management/mdm/bitlocker-csp). The BitLocker CSP adds policy options that go beyond ensuring that encryption has occurred, and is available on computers that run Windows 10 Business or Enterprise editions and on Windows Phones.
