Device Encryption Requirement

 

Supported On:	Setting Label
Exchange Server 2007

 

The Require encryption on the device setting determines whether or not all NotifySync databases on the device are to be encrypted. When enforced, the device client prohibits the user from disabling encryption. In addition, if encryption was not enabled prior to enforcement, 192-bit encryption is automatically enabled. If encryption was enabled prior to enforcement, the current encryption option will remain intact.

 

When the setting is disabled on the server, the user is free to select any encryption algorithm, or disable encryption altogether. If the setting is disabled on the server after having been previously enabled, the current encryption option will remain intact.
