Mac OS X Boot Camp Support
NOTE:
When using Boot Camp, Dell Encryption Enterprise does not encrypt the Windows operating system. Also, if two or more bootable macOS partitions exist on the device, Encryption Enterprise encrypts only the primary volume.
Boot Camp is a utility included with Mac OS X that assists you in installing Windows on Mac computers in a dual-boot configuration. Boot
Camp is supported with the following Windows operating systems:
• Windows 7 and 7 Home Premium, Professional, and Ultimate (64-bit)
• Windows 8.1 and 8.1 Pro (64-bit)
NOTE:
Windows 7 is Boot Camp 4 or 5.1. Windows 8.1 and higher is Boot Camp 5.1 only.
To use Encryption Enterprise for Windows in Boot Camp on a computer with Encryption Enterprise for Mac, the system volume must be encrypted through Encryption Enterprise with FileVault2. See the
Command Line Installation/Upgrade
for instructions.
NOTE:
If your Windows partition is a candidate for Encryption External Media, be sure to whitelist it or it will be encrypted. See
Copy whitelist rule
.
NOTE:
You must ensure Windows is installed before deploying client policies enabling encryption. After the client begins the encryption process, it disallows disk partition operations required by Boot Camp.
