4.1.3 Phase 3: Client Acknowledges Receipt and Application of Policy Settings

  • Article

The client acknowledges the policy download and policy application by using the temporary PolicyKey obtained in phase 2. In this case, the client has indicated compliance and provided the correct PolicyKey. Therefore, the server responds with the "final" PolicyKey which the client then uses in the X-MS-PolicyKey header of successive command requests to satisfy policy enforcement.
