Is my data secure in locked screen if I use bitlocker



My SSD is currently encrypted by bitlocker right now. So let say if I leave my laptop on locked state (Win+L). Is it possible for someone to get access to my data?


Few thing I noted are:




  • If someone tried to boot from external USB after restart, he will fail as he will be asked to enter bitlocker password after a restart




  • Since I am in locked screen right now and has done the booting part earlier, currently my disk is unlocked




  • It is not possible to brute force because of limit in password attempts in locked screen




  • Lets ignore the case there is already a malware in my PC or someone has already replaced sticky keys by command prompt




So is my data safe if my laptop got stolen while in locked screen?
