After a re-start of the client system after installation, the user may be forced to logon
to EEFF in order to retrieve the correct encryption policy. This first logon can be made
mandatory, i.e. such that it cannot be bypassed until proper authentication credentials
are entered. This authentication enforcement is enabled/disabled in the Endpoint
Encryption Manager.
There is also an option in the Endpoint Encryption Manager providing an automatic
logon feature if both Endpoint Encryption Manager (hard disk encryption with pre-boot
authentication) and Endpoint Encryption for Files and Folders are installed. If enabled,
the logon to Endpoint Encryption for Files and Folders is done automatically, since the
user has already entered Endpoint Encryption logon credentials in pre-boot. The
authentication to Endpoint Encryption for Files and Folders is then based on the
authentication from Endpoint Encryption for PC. See Endpoint Encryption for Files and
Folders Polic
y Settings of this document for more detail.
