Mac OS X disk encryption with Intune
Hi all,
Is there a possibility to encrypt the disk (FileVault) of an Mac OS X device by using Intune? I read something about Apple Configurator, to create a profile and deploy it with Intune. But I cannot find information on how to setup such a profile for disk encryption. Anybody have a good article about this? Or another good solution to encrypt a harddisk on a Mac?
Thanks!

Till such time you can use the mac device compliance policy and set the "Encryption of data storage on a device to require". This will prevent users from storing company data on their device unless it is encrypted.
This look like somewhere to start https://www.johnkitzmiller.com/blog/how-i-deploy-filevault-2/
Some offical apple documentation http://training.apple.com/pdf/WP_FileVault2.pdf
Haven't done it myself so no experience.
Thanks! But this guy is using Casper, I`m looking for a solution based on intune (if possible).
