Endpoint Security Suite Pro Advanced Installation Guide v1.8

Advanced Authentication Client

When using Advanced Authentication, users will be securing access to the computer using advanced authentication credentials that are managed and enrolled using Advanced Authentication. Advanced Authentication will be the primary manager of the authentication credentials for Windows Sign-in, including Windows password, fingerprint, and smart cards. Picture password, PIN, and fingerprint credentials enrolled using the Microsoft Operating System will not be recognized at Windows Sign-in.

To continue using the Microsoft Operating System to manage user credentials, do not install Advanced Authentication or uninstall it.
An SED does not require a TPM to provide Advanced Authentication or encryption.
