The legitimate use of the Device Guard readiness tool is a standard part of enterprise security compliance. However, using tools with similar names for the purpose of bypassing software licensing (piracy) is a violation of Terms of Service and may carry legal risks for businesses. Always ensure your organization’s software is properly licensed through official channels.
Ensures only trusted applications can run on a device by using hardware-based isolation.
