checkpoint full disk encryption

Does Checkpoint full disk encryption pre-boot authentication work with macOS computers?

Apple limit all 3rd party vendors to FileVault management as I understand.

Thanks, other question 

does preboot authentication work with active directory credential? 

[Doron_Zuckerman]

Yes.

AD scanner can sync. the AD password to Check Point management server.

I tested it doesn't work, any link can share how to do it?

Hi,
Please read this article for configuring AD scanner:

Are you using Check Point FDE or just relying on FileVault?

Apple restricted third party FDE implementations a while back.
We integrate with Filevault.
Pre-boot authentication is a function of locally configured accounts, I believe.
Those accounts can rely on AD (with cached credentials offline).
