Client Security features, applications, and settings.
Figure 2 HP Client Security Home Page
The Home page is divided into three sections:
Identity Provides Credential Manager features of enrollment and management of
authentication credentials (password, fingerprint, cards, Bluetooth, PIN, and HP
SpareKey) and ability to access Password Manager in order to add/edit/manage
logon data for websites and applications.
Data Provides access to applications used for managing data security – HP Drive
Encryption, HP File Sanitizer, and HP Trust Circles.
Device Provides access to applications used for managing device security – HP Device
Access Manager, HP Computrace.
Additionally, HP Client Security provides access to Advanced Settings gear icon at the top right in order
to configure administrators and standard user’s policies for both logon and session; manage PC users;
activate or deactivate Windows and power-on authentication; and backup or restore HP Client Security data
(primarily Password Manager).
For added security, user authentication is enforced and all administrative level configuration operations
require Windows UAC elevation.
User Management
Accessing the User Management page shown in Figure 3 from the Advanced Settings icon allows you to
create and delete HP Client Security users in a system wide manner. To ensure users and security policies
are synchronized between the operating system and the pre-boot environment, users should always be
added and deleted using HP Client Security user management.
Selecting a user icon on the Users page will launch an authentication policy summary for that user – it will
display credentials and policies as configured by/for that user. Selecting a credential will allow its
enrollment.
“Login policy” applies to the Windows Logon. “Session policy” applies to security applications running in
Windows that leverage Credential Manager, such as Password Manager.
