Configure use of smart cards on removable data drives

This policy setting allows you to specify whether smart cards can be used to authenticate user access to the BitLocker-protected removable data drives.

  • If you enable this policy setting, smart cards can be used to authenticate user access to the drive
    • You can require a smart card authentication by selecting the Require use of smart cards on removable data drives option
  • If you disable this policy setting, users can't use smart cards to authenticate their access to BitLocker-protected removable data drives
  • If you don't configure this policy setting, smart cards can be used to authenticate user access to a BitLocker-protected drive
