Encryption Status widget

The Encryption Status widget provides on the Dashboard an overview of the encryption status and full-disk encryption (FDE) products that the Secure Endpoint Agent has detected on your Windows and Mac devices. You can view the data grouped by application or policy group.

Each device's Secure Endpoint Agent performs an hourly ESP scan. If a change is detected, the new information is uploaded on the device's next agent connection, which is typically within the next 15 minutes if the device is online.

Possible encryption statuses are:

Encrypted: includes devices with one of the following encryption statuses:
Not Encrypted: includes devices with one of the following encryption statuses:
- Not Encrypted
- Not Detected
- Decryption in Progress
Pending: encryption status is not yet available (waiting for devices to check in to the Absolute Monitoring Center)
In Progress: includes Windows devices with an encryption status of Encryption in Progress

To view data in this widget, the Full-Disk Encryption Status policy must be activated in one or more policy groups.

The widget includes the following data, depending on the selected view:

View	Chart	Description	Displayed information
Summary or Standard	Doughnut	Shows the proportion of devices with each encryption status.	The sections of the chart represent the proportion of devices that are encrypted, not encrypted, or where encryption is in progress. The percentage of devices that are encrypted shows in the center of the chart.
Standard	Bar	Provides an overview of the encryption status of your devices, based on the FDE applications or policy groups that are detected most often To toggle between the two reporting options, click the link under the widget title and select either Devices by application or Devices by policy group.	The chart shows up to five FDE applications or policy groups that are detected most often. Any remaining items are included in the Others bar. The colored sections of each bar represent the proportion of devices with each encryption status.
Detailed	Column	The summary area shows the four statuses and their associated percentages, in descending order. The chart shows up to five FDE applications or policy groups that are detected most often. Any remaining items are included in the Others column. The colored sections of each column represent the proportion of devices with each encryption status. Also see Trend view.
