PDF

  • No Resolved Technical Advisories exist.

Encryption Client v8.9.1

  • A Dell Data Protection-encrypted Windows 10 computer can now be upgraded to the Windows 10 Fall Update, after a few prerequisites are met. The prerequisites must be met, due to a change Microsoft has made to the Windows update process beginning with Windows 10. For more information, see Upgrade to the Windows 10 Anniversary Update. [DDPC-928, DDPC-1146, DDPC-1443]
  • SDE key material download failures now result in a meaningful log entry, "Failed to validate key material bundle against the device." Erroneous validation failure warnings no longer display. [DDPC-960, DDPC-961]
  • Corrected a misspelling of szRegValueLoginTimeout in the registry override variable and log message. [DDPC-966]
  • The computer now boots as expected after Intel Rapid Storage Technology drivers are installed. [DDPC-1246]
  • The HideOverlayIcons registry setting that is used to hide the encryption icons for all managed users on a computer after the original installation now works as expected. The HideOverlayIconsOverlay registry setting now effectively hides Dell Data Protection Encryption overlay icons when File Explorer is refreshed or reopened. [DDPC-1267, DDPC-1327]
  • External Media Shield Explorer now launches properly after more than one incorrect password entry when accessing media that has been provisioned on a Mac. [DDPC-1273]
  • A few WSProbe options have been deprecated to improve security. The WSProbe utility no longer supports the following options: -u (enable or disable Application Data Encryption), -x (exclude application from Application Data Encryption), and -i (revert an excluded application back to included in Application Data Encryption). [DDPC-1279]
  • All characters of the 32-character Endpoint Code now fully display in the External Media Shield manual authentication dialog. [DDPC-1295]
  • Excess logging of file-create operations no longer occurs. [DDPC-1339]
  • An issue that caused excessive memory consumption has been resolved.[DDPC-1468]
  • On a Windows computer, External Media Shield now successfully opens files and folders named with accented characters that are stored on external media and provisioned using a Mac computer. [DDPC-1517]
  • When encryption models are changed (SDE to HCA) after an encryption sweep has completed, the computer no longer experiences a temporary blue screen. Previously, this occurred while key types were swapped, and allowing the computer to reboot typically restored functionality. [DDPC-1536]
  • External Media Shield no longer displays Access Denied errors when the Windows Media Encryption and Windows Port Control policies are set to Off and Disabled. [DDPC-1572]
  • Processes related with pop-up notifications during the encryption sweep have been streamlined, reducing CPU usage. [DDPC-2115]
  • Decryption with the Encryption Removal Agent at uninstallation now succeeds. Previously, in a few cases, decryption began but did not finish sweeping the entire volume. [DDPSUS-751]
  • An issue that caused multiple reboots during installation or upgrade on some computers is resolved. [DDPSUS-766]

  • Windows password entry now succeeds when entered first in dual-factor authentication on Windows 10, after upgrade to the Windows 10 Fall Update. [DDPC-1675]
