Configuring Drive Encryption policies

Prev Next

Managing Drive Encryption from a single location is achieved by integrating the Drive Encryption software into ePolicy Orchestrator - On-premises. This management is accomplished through the combination of product policies.

When configuring policies for the first time:

  1. Plan product policies for the segments of your System Tree.

  2. Create and assign policies to groups and systems.

Policy settings for Drive Encryption are grouped by category. Each policy category refers to a specific subset of policy settings. On the Policy Catalog page, policies appear under Drive Encryption and the individual policies appear under a specific category.

  • Product settings

  • User-based settings

  • Server settings

  • Add local domain user settings

You can add regular expressions to blacklist user accounts. For details, see section Add an ALDU blacklist policy in this Product Guide.

When you open or edit an existing policy or create a new policy under Drive Encryption, the policy settings are organized in a series of tabs.

The settings and recommended settings policy options are organized into tabs. For details, see Trellix Drive Encryption 8.0.x Interface Reference Guide.
