When are you guys enabling FileVault via MDM, at logout or login or using a custom profile that would enable FV immediately ?
At what point are you enabling FileVault via MDM?

We do it as part of our set up configuration profile with highest priority, so encryption happens shortly after account creation.

They get a pop up that says "Filevault must be enabled" and they authenticate and it starts in the background.

could I ask how do you do that ? i mean to force it immediately after the account setup and ask them to enter their password so the encryption starts ?

In our environment it happens after the first reboot. I would also like to know how to force it immediately.

We send a configuration profile to the machine. It turns it on for new deployments and disables turning it off. 🤷 How the MDM does that I'm not 100% sure.

yeah enabling FV via configuration profile doesn't allow it to be disabled but how can you force immediately 😄 can you share your profile here ?
