Can the GuardianEdge disk encryption products leverage existing directory services?
Yes. Close integration with Microsoft Active Directory is a key component of the GuardianEdge Hard Disk Encryption solution. Security policies for GuardianEdge Hard Disk Encryption endpoints are controlled through Microsoft Group Policy Objects (GPO), and creation and deployment of GuardianEdge Hard Disk Encryption policies is leveraged within the GuardianEdge management console through an MMC snap-in to Active Directory group policy management. In addition, GuardianEdge also supports the Novell eDirectory environment, including all computer objects and the complete eDirectory organizational unit hierarchy.

The GuardianEdge server is based on Active Directory Application Mode, a lightweight version of Active Directory that provides scaling and enterprise administration options comparable to that of Active Directory, and enables extensions to the Active Directory schema without modifying the enterprise AD schema.
