Single Sign-On
Single Sign-On (SSO) is a feature that allows ESET Full Disk Encryption to automatically synchronize the ESET Full Disk Encryption password with a single user´s domain password, allowing the user to sign in one time and boot directly into their Windows profile.
Requirements •Activated ESET Full Disk Encryption version 2.0 or later •The ESET Full Disk Encryption computer must be connected to a domain •The latest versions of ESET PROTECT and ESET Agent products are installed |
1.Configure the ESET Full Disk Encryption policy in ESET PROTECT and apply the policy to the target computers:
2.After the computer completes the Safe Start, ESET Full Disk Encryption prompts you to type your Windows password.
3.Click OK to confirm the password synchronization.
4.When you restart your computer, the encryption pre-boot authentication screen displays the user´s Windows username and a check box to log in to the user´s Windows profile.
The check box is selected by default. You can deselect the check box to boot the computer to the Windows sign-in screen if needed. |
Pre-boot password change You cannot change the pre-boot password directly in the ESET Full Disk Encryption interface; it is synchronized with your Windows password. Hold Ctrl + Alt + Del and select Change a password to change your Windows password. |
Applying Single Sign-On to existing users
•Apply a new encryption policy with Single Sign-On enabled
or
•Edit the existing encryption policy to enable Single Sign-On
When the new policy is applied to an ESET Full Disk Encryption computer, and after rebooting, you will see the option to Sync ESET Full Disk Encryption and Windows passwords (use single sign-on) at the Windows sign-in screen.
