Last Update — September 2, 2009 3 Temporary Encryption A note to our customers about untested software We do not recommend the installation of untested software because this may compromise Pointsec Mobile's functionality or produce unwanted behavior in the device. The following are examples of problems that can arise with untested software: The software may be denied access to encrypted files. Pointsec Mobile must close most applications when locking, and untested software may not handle restart properly. The software may create files that unintentionally become encrypted. A common example is .txt files used for logging. Unintentionally encrypted files may prevent the software from working properly, but can be worked around by placing the folder containing such files on the exclusion list. Temporary Encryption The temporary encryption function is supported on the same devices as the push email function. For a list of devices, see “Push Email” on page 3. For a description of the temporary encryption function, see the Administrator’s Guide delivered with the product.

Unlock Pointsec Mobile before installation and removal activities Make sure that Pointsec Mobile is unlocked before initiating installation or removal of other applications on a Pointsec Mobile-protected device. Exercise caution when defining encryption lists When defining encryption inclusion lists, • Do not add C:\ to the list. If you do, you risk encrypting programs and utilities so that they do not function correctly. • Ensure that Pointsec Mobile does not encrypt files or folders needed by any unsupported applications you may have chosen to use. If you are uncertain, try adding relevant files and folders to the exclusion list, or test using the Relaxed and Typical predefined sets. Comply with the following memory card tips Do not configure the setting Require encrypted memory cards to Yes in the install settings if users will need to run applications from their memory cards. Do not switch off power to the device when encrypting or decrypting a memory card.
