Can you read or even write onto Bitlocker encrypted USB sticks with an IGEL UD-LX Device in a Citrix Session

hi all, I just wanted to know if there is a way to read or even write onto bitlocker encrypted usb-sticks with an UD-LX Device in a Citrix Session.

Learn more, read the entire thread inside the IGEL Community o Slack

Hi Till, actually they are two possible ways:

Ask at our support for a actual Custom Partition called Dislocker

try to get it working by redirection the stick using the USB Redirection instead

Is There any official statement from Igel regarding support for encrypted USB sticks (e.g. bitlocker-to-go) with Igel LX thin clients?

@member something to share maybe from the PM side?

Small update: redirecting encrypted USB storage devices to be used directly within the session is supported for Citrix environments as of CVAD version 1808 (docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-virtual-apps-desktops/policies/reference/ica-policy-settings/usb-devices-policy-settings.html) and probably also for MS RDS environments as of Windows 10 or Windows server 2016. Not sure however if there is any specific Igel LX thin client config required to get this working (i guess not, as long as USB redirection is supported by the (thin) client…)
