Frequently Asked Questions
What is Full Disk Encryption?
Full Disk Encryption (FDE) is a security measure that encrypts all data stored on a computer's hard drive. This means that even if the physical drive is removed or the computer is stolen, the data remains unreadable without the correct decryption key or password.
Who should use Bitdefender GravityZone Full Disk Encryption?
Any business that handles sensitive data, needs to comply with data protection regulations, or wants to protect against data breaches due to lost or stolen devices should consider this solution. It is particularly relevant for SMBs and mid-market companies.
How does pre-boot authentication work?
Pre-boot authentication requires users to enter their credentials (like a password or PIN) before the operating system starts to load. This ensures that only authorized individuals can even begin to access the encrypted drive.
