Manage-bde: protectors

 

Applies To: Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8

Manages the protection methods used for the BitLocker encryption key. For examples of how this command can be used, see Examples.

Syntax

manage-bde -protectors [{-get|-add|-delete|-disable|-enable|-adbackup}] <Drive> [-computername <Name>] [{-?|/?}] [{-help|-h}]

Parameters

Parameter

Description

-get

Displays all the key protection methods enabled on the drive and provides their type and identifier (ID).

-add

Adds key protection methods as specified by using additional -add syntax and parameters.

-delete

Deletes key protection methods used by BitLocker. All key protectors will be removed from a drive unless the optional -delete syntax and parameters are used to specify which protectors to delete. When the last protector on a drive is deleted, BitLocker protection of the drive is disabled to ensure that access to data is not lost inadvertently.

-disable

Disables protection, which will allow anyone to access encrypted data by making the encryption key available unsecured on drive. No key protectors are removed. Protection will be resumed the next time Windows is booted unless the optional -disable syntax and parameters are used to specify the reboot count.

-enable

Enables protection by removing the unsecured encryption key from the drive. All configured key protectors on the drive will be enforced.

-adbackup

Backs up all recovery information for the drive specified to Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS). To back up only a single recovery key to AD DS, append the -id parameter and specify the ID of a specific recovery key to back up.

<Drive>

Represents a drive letter followed by a colon.

-computername

Specifies that Manage-bde.exe will be used to modify BitLocker protection on a different computer. You can also use -cn as an abbreviated version of this command.

<Name>

Represents the name of the computer on which to modify BitLocker protection. Accepted values include the computer's NetBIOS name and the computer's IP address.

-? or /?

Displays brief Help at the command prompt.

-help or -h

Displays complete Help at the command prompt.

<PathToExternalKeyDirectory>

Represents the directory path to the startup key.

-certificate

Adds a public key protector for a data drive. You can also use -cert as an abbreviated version of this command.

-cf

Specifies that a certificate file will be used to provide the public key certificate.

<PathToCertificateFile>

Represents the directory path to the certificate file.

-ct

Specifies that a certificate thumbprint will be used to identify the public key certificate

<CertificateThumbprint>

Specifies the value of the thumbprint property of the certificate you want to use. For example, a certificate thumbprint value of "a9 09 50 2d d8 2a e4 14 33 e6 f8 38 86 b0 0d 42 77 a3 2a 7b" should be specified as "a909502dd82ae41433e6f83886b00d4277a32a7b."

-tpmandpin

Adds a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) and personal identification number (PIN) protector for the operating system drive. You can also use -tp as an abbreviated version of this command.

-tpmandstartupkey

Adds a TPM and startup key protector for the operating system drive. You can also use -tsk as an abbreviated version of this command.

-tpmandpinandstartupkey

Adds a TPM, PIN, and startup key protector for the operating system drive. You can also use -tpsk as an abbreviated version of this command.

-password

Adds a password key protector for the data drive. You can also use -pw as an abbreviated version of this command.

-adaccountorgroup

Adds a security identifier(SID)-based identity protector for the volume. You can also use -sid as an abbreviated version of this command.

Important

By default, you cannot add an ADAccountOrGroup protector remotely using either WMI or manage-bde. If your deployment requires the ability to add this protector remotely you must enable constrained delegation.

-computername
