As part of a push to improve security with our laptop users, we are
testing a deployment of EFS Assistant. This application encrypts
various locations of a user's hard drive and profile and is configured
via group policy.
I already have the policy set via group policy, and a WMI filter set so
only laptop users will be able to read and apply the policy.
The problem I am having now is that the application should be run every
time a user logs in.
I think it would be best if I could configure the application to run at
user login via scheduled tasks, but I don't believe that's possible.
Maybe someone could correct me on that one?
I could add the application as a logon or logoff script, but according
to the documentation, that is not recommended as the encryption process
could take a considerable amount of time depending on the amount of data
the user stores locally.
We are running a Windows 2003 R2 domain. So any new group policy
functionality from a Windows 2008 domain is not an option.
Thanks,
~Ben
