SDS Enterprise administration

Stopping SBox.ini configuration file support

To simplify SDS Enterprise deployment and administration, the settings found in the SBox.ini configuration file have been moved and this file is no longer required.

The configuration settings can now be found either in the security policy .json file or in the Windows registry. Some other parameters have been replaced with fixed values in the code or deleted.

Helpful hints:

  • a migration tool is available on request,

  • A migration guide is available on the Technical documentation site.

Stormshield Data Management Center (SDMC)

Converting .sbox encrypted files to .sdsx format

To help you convert your encrypted files from the old .sbox format to the new, more secure .sdsx format, you can now configure automatic conversion of these files when the user opens them in the security policy. The operation is transparent for the user, and the .sdsx format means, among other things, that files do not need to be re-encrypted after use. You'll find these new options in the SDMC Policies > Features > File menu and in the .json configuration file settings.
