HP Drive Encryption Software - Where can you download it?

[michont]

Hello, I hope this is an easy question because I just can't find out where to download HP Drive Encryption Software.  I can find the Client Security software but under that section in the software section, it says nothing about the software to encrypt the hard drive.  I have some older versions of it but for whatever reason, just won't work.  Does anyone have a link for getting the encryption software for the Probook 450 G3?

Hi:

Here is the link to the software you requested...

HP Drive Encryption software provides and manages encryption for the computer hard drive. This package is provided for supported models running a supported operating system.

NOTE: Security Manager 8.3.x or later must be installed first to access Drive Encryption.

Thank you, I will definitely try this out.  This does seem like an older SP# though, have you by chance tested this out on this model?

[Paul_Tikkanen]

You're very welcome.

I have not tried it out on any business notebook model.

Here is the file information regarding the supported notebooks.

While the 450 G2 isn't listed, as long as you have the required client security manager software installed, I would imagine it will work just fine.

Do you have a URL for searching all of the softpaqs?  No matter what terms I use to search, just can't seem to find them.

[Paul_Tikkanen]

Unfortunately, I do not.

I remembered the 850 G1 had a host of add on security software.

can i use this version for 1040 G1, 1040 G3, 845 G3, 855 G3? i don't see these models in compatibility list.

Honestly, I couldn't tell you.  I suggest going to the support page the model and look for the client security download.
