Data Security Console

The Data Security Console is the interface through which you can enroll, manage your credentials and configure self-recovery questions.

You can access these applications:

  • The Threat Protection dashboard displays protection status of the computer, based on Threat Protection policies.
  • The Encryption Status tool allows you to view the encryption status of the computer's drives.
  • The Enrollments tool allows you to set up and manage credentials, configure self-recovery questions, and view the status of your credential enrollment. Your ability to enroll in each type of credential is set by the administrator.
  • Password Manager allows you to automatically fill in and submit data required to log on to websites, Windows applications, and network resources. Password Manager also lets you change your logon passwords through the application, ensuring that passwords maintained by Password Manager are kept in sync with those of the targeted resource.

This guide describes how to use each of these applications.
