Drive Encryption provides support for user management using the User Directory feature to remove the dependency on LDAP server.
The User Directory feature utilizes the LDAP Sync extension within ePO - On-prem and provides user management for Drive Encryption users using the UserDirectory.zip extension. Once you install the UserDirectory.zip extension into the ePO - On-prem server, you can create Organizational Units (OUs) and users and manage them on the User Directory page, without requiring to register on LDAP server.
You can also perform user management through User Directory using Web API commands. For more information, see Trellix Drive Encryption 8.0.x Scripting Guide.
Note
User Directory does not support user certificates for Drive Encryption 7.2.x or later.
Note
User Directory does not support adding groups. Groups can only be added for users who are created from registered LDAP servers.
