I noticed that Windows Security / Device Security intermittently is reporting the system does not meet hardware the specifications for enhanced hardware security.
2023 Certificates are updated, Windows is fully patched, TPM, Secure Boot are all enabled.
I have repaired the Windows Security App from inside the app and ran in Powershell as an Administrator Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.SecHealthUI | Reset-AppxPackage which did not fix the issue.
I uninstalled Webroot using Revo Uninstaller and back went to Windows Defender which did not fix the issue.
I have since noted the issue appears to be when the Computer wakes up from Sleep Mode.
Is there any setting I should look at to see if I something is wrong please?

I would consult the DeviceGuard log: Microsoft-Windows-DeviceGuard/Operational

I've seen issues like this crop up but they tend to resolve after a reboot. It could be a bug related to waking from a sleep state.

TPM 2.0.
I did some more searching and there is known issue where sometimes a glitch occurs between the Motherboard and Windows then "This device does not meet the requirements for hardware security" is displayed.
I reset Windows Security App and will continue to monitor.
