Synchronization with backend
In the process of synchronization, the states of the clients are reported to the SafeGuard Enterprise backend, policies are updated and the user-machine assignment is checked.
Therefore, the following information is sent from the clients and appears in the SafeGuard Management Center:
- As soon as an endpoint is encrypted, "POA" is checked. Other information that is displayed includes drive name, label, type, state, algorithm and operating system.
- New FileVault 2 users are added also in the Management Center.
Note If the SafeGuard Enterprise client software is removed from an endpoint, the endpoint and
its users are still visible in the SafeGuard Management Center. But the timestamp of the last
server contact does not change any more.
On the client side, the following things are changed:
- Policies that were changed in the Management Center are changed on the client.
- Users that have been deleted or blocked in the Management Center are also removed from the list of FileVault 2 users on the client.
