#### How to resolve the non-compliance state due to silent auth failures
106106

Microsoft Defender for Endpoint has the feature to let the user sign-in according to a set of policies called [Conditional Access policies](/defender-endpoint/configure-conditional-access). If a policy is violated, the Microsoft Defender app auto-signs out and starts failing in silent auth (sign-in attempts in background). This results in the devices being shown as non-compliant on Intune portal.  A user can get the device to compliant by signing in again.
