Disabling a ChromeOS device in the Admin console prevents it from booting up or being used, effectively rendering it inoperable. However, it retains the device's association with the organization, allowing administrators to track its location and manage it remotely if recovered.
The other options are not as suitable:
* Tagging as stolen:Doesn't prevent device usage.
* Powerwash:Removes all data and enrollment, making management impossible.
* Deprovision:Removes device association, making management impossible.
