Answer
The Cibecs Agent makes use of a real-time index and encryption watcher service. The index tracks new and changed files on the NTFS file system. New files are marked for encryption.

New files and folders need to be backed up before they can be encrypted. The backups will take place according to the policy schedule or it can be initiated from Endpoint Cloud or the Cibecs Agent.
