Since migration to Windows 11, Bitlocker now has a massive security loophole

When pausing protection on OS drive for MS updates / BIOS updates and anything else you would paused bitlocker for, Protection is never resumed if the machine cannot communicate to the DC / domain.
This leaves many device in a unprotected state whiles off the domain. (VPN / Home users ect..)
Windows 10 devices resume protection after reboot (like their supposed to !)

This really needs addressing ASAP !
