PinCompliance is an app and rollout service that introduces a mandatory BitLocker startup PIN across your organization โ gradually, safely, and with full compliance reporting for IT.
Enforcing a PIN without a controlled rollout process is one of the most common sources of helpdesk tickets and a real risk to business continuity.
Changing BitLocker protectors in the wrong order can leave a device with no working unlock method โ leaving the 48-digit recovery key as the only way in.
Without reporting, it's hard to answer a simple audit question: which devices already have a PIN configured, and which are still pending.
Enforcing a PIN suddenly, with no transition period, triggers frustration and a wave of tickets on rollout day instead of smooth adoption.
Order matters: first the policy, then the app, and only at the end does the PIN become required at startup.
You set the TPM + PIN requirement in policy โ without immediately enforcing it on end users.
Runs in the system context and shows the setup window only after the user logs in, not during installation.
The user sets their own PIN, with the option to defer for up to 30 days โ after which setup becomes mandatory.
Every BitLocker protector change is preceded by verification and a recovery key backup โ before anything is removed.
Transition period of up to 30 days โ users can defer setup by 1 or 7 days before the PIN becomes required.
Automatic recovery key backup to Microsoft Entra ID before any protector change.
Add, verify, then remove โ the new protector is confirmed before the old one is deleted.
Inconsistent state detection โ the app recognizes and repairs configuration issues so the device never gets locked out at startup.
Full logs and registry entries ready for compliance reporting in Intune or external systems.
Three simple tiers โ we tailor the rollout and reporting scope to the size of your organization.
BitLocker policy and PIN app rollout for a single organization.
Full compliance visibility and support during a pilot rollout.
Multiple tenants or locations, plus priority support.
No. The setup window only appears after the user logs in, and the PIN itself isn't enforced until it has been created.
Setup is deferred according to the configured transition period โ by default up to 30 days from the first detection of the requirement.
Yes. Before any protector change, the app creates and backs up a copy of the recovery key to Microsoft Entra ID.
Yes. We recommend assigning the policy and app to a dedicated test group before a production-wide rollout.
Yes. Configuration state is written to the device registry and can be reported through Intune registry inventory.
