Hi everyone, first post here.
Say you have a Windows 8 PRO system in an office environment being used as a Quickbooks server and sharing a few other files with other users on a network. This Windows 8 PRO PC is using BitLocker drive encryption via TPM where you must enter a pin number on boot and a password to log into windows. Other users on the network, mainly other quickbooks users who need to be able to work with the quickbooks company files that are on the Bitlocker machine, are using various versions of windows none of which are a PRO addition. They also occasionally log into their PC’s remotely, say using gotomypc or similar to access the same company files.
Are there going to be any issues?
If the Windows 8 Pro systems is just logged off but not shut down I’m thinking everything should work just fine but I have no experience with BitLocker so I could be wrong. Which is why I am here.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
