You can create and manage encryption keys from Trellix ePO - On-prem on the FRP keys page. These keys can be assigned to users or systems.

Key types

Trellix FRP supports encryption using three types of keys:

  • Regular keys — Created by Trellix ePO - On-prem administrators and used in any policy.
  • User personal keys — User personal keys is a per user unique encryption key generated in Trellix ePO - On-prem when assigned to users. When a user is assigned a user personal key, the user can use this unique key on any Trellix FRP system managed by the same Trellix ePO - On-prem.
  • User local keys — Created by the user using the Trellix FRP client software on a client system. The user can use these keys to encrypt or decrypt data. These keys are never backed up in Trellix ePO - On-prem.
