Endpoint Encryption for Files and Folders Policy Settings

| 27

The Endpoint Encryption user name and the Windows user name must be identical. It

is recommended to use the Endpoint Encryption ActiveDirectory Connector to

accomplish this. See Step 1 in the example scenario above.

Admin Level

The Endpoint Encryption Management Centre administration level applied to this

policy. Only Administrators with an equal or higher level will be able to change the

settings.

Description

Here you may type some descriptive information about the policy, e.g. what the

purpose of the policy is, or to who it shall be applied.

File Extensions

File extension encryption allows you to define what kind of files shall be encrypted

based on their file extensions assigned by the application (not the user). You may add

any extension and select what key shall be used to encrypt these files. Also, you need

to specify what applications will be creating the files, for example, to encrypt *doc

files, you need to stipulate the application that creates these files, i.e. Microsoft®

Word™ in this example.

Process Specific File Extension encryption

Process specific file encryption provides the possibility to encrypt particular file

extensions created by named applications (processes). Both the file extension and the

process name must be listed in order for the file extension encryption to work. For

example, assume you want to encrypt files with the extension *.txt. However, you

only want *.txt files created by Notepad to be encrypted, not *.txt files encrypted by

any other application, e.g. MS Word®.

You would then enter the process specific name notepad.exe, the extension .txt and

the encryption key in your list of process specific file extensions to be encrypted. How

this is done is described below. The result would then be that only *.txt files created

by Notepad will be encrypted, not those by any other application. This feature is

particularly useful for temporary files (*.tmp).

Only newly created files can be encrypted with file extension encryption. For

encryption of existing files, folder encryption needs to be used.

Creating (editing/removing) a process specific file extension encryption

policy

1. Start the Endpoint Encryption Manager and open the policy for which you would

like to enable process specific file extension encryption.
