I enabled my TPM on my Dell laptop and then I enabled BitLocker encryption on C partition.I also saved unique key to USB and network location.Now my C parttion is encrypted but after rebooting I decided to remove USB and disconnected patch cable to test the laptop if it's going to look for that key ??? I can logon to that laptop without any problems...What Am I missing ...I don't want to use my AD to store unique identifiers..Why it's not looking for USB or network location where I saved recovery key..!?

Encryption is the process of encoding messages or information in such a way that only authorized parties can read it. In an encryption scheme, the intended communication information or message, referred to as plaintext, is encrypted using an encryption algorithm, generating ciphertext that can only be read if decrypted. For technical reasons, an encryption scheme usually uses a pseudo-random encryption key generated by an algorithm. An authorized recipient can easily decrypt the message with the key provided by the originator to recipients, but not to unauthorized interceptors.
