Types of Endpoint Encryption

​Whole/Full Disk Encryption

Only encrypts data when HDD is powered down and user is not logged into the system.
Works well for mobile laptops, useless for always on servers.

​File/Folder

Keys are required to view un-encrypted files.
Great for securing sensitive information that will be shared across users or networks.
