Frequently Asked Questions
What is co-term licensing for education?
Co-term licensing means all your software licenses renew on the same date. This simplifies budget planning and renewal management for educational institutions.
How does full disk encryption protect data?
Full disk encryption scrambles all data on a hard drive. Without the correct decryption key or password, the data is unreadable, preventing unauthorized access even if the physical device is stolen.
Can I manage encryption for multiple devices from one place?
Yes, Bitdefender GravityZone provides a centralized console where you can deploy, manage, and monitor encryption policies across all your organization's endpoints.
