Understanding Full Disk Encryption (FDE) for Security+

Full Disk Encryption (FDE) is a data protection technique that encrypts all the data stored on a storage device, such as a hard drive or solid-state drive. The goal of FDE is to prevent unauthorized access to data by encrypting the entire contents of the storage medium, including the operating system, applications, and user files.

The Security+ exam may assess your understanding of FDE as a data protection measure. Key areas of focus may include the encryption process, boot-time authentication, encryption algorithms, key management, performance considerations, and the relationship between FDE and secure boot. Additionally, knowledge of FDE's role in protecting data on various devices is relevant for the exam.
