Encryption Policies

Encryption policy enables you to set options for encrypting data and signing on after Power-On Authentication.

To set encryption policies for users in an AlertBoot-protected system:

1. Click Users/Machines on the AlertBoot home page.
    

2. Click Setup on the left navigation panel of the Users/Machines page, and then Encryption Policies option under Setup.
    

The Encryption Policy screen is displayed.

You can set the following encryption options to the end user:

• Full Disk Encryption: This is a default option, where all the hard drives on a machine gets encrypted by AlertBoot.

• USB Media Encryption: This is a universal option for the AlertBoot account. This option enables you to encrypt or share data to or from a removable USB drive or a memory stick.

• Single Sign-On from Power-On Authentication: Select this option to enable alternate Windows user authentication to the system after the power-on authentication challenge.

Note: An AlertBoot administrator can choose to enable or disable these options.
