Authentication Policies Parent topic

The following table explains policies that govern authenticating local and domain user accounts.
Note
Note
Encryption Management for Microsoft BitLocker and Encryption Management for Apple FileVault do not require authentication and are not affected by authentication policies. Client, login, password, and authentication policies, or allowing the user to uninstall the Endpoint Encryption agent software only affects the Full Disk Encryption and File Encryption agents.
