Dell Endpoint Security Suite Enterprise Technical Advisories v3.9

PDF

Technical Advisories v1.7.1

Encryption Client v8.17.1

  • In some cases, a device may not show in compliance after sweep completes. The current workaround is to reboot the device. [DDPC-7977]

Preboot Authentication v8.17.1

  • In some cases, the intensity of USB Type C mouse seems to strengthen while user is in PBA on a UEFI machine. [DDPC-7885]
  • When a network cable is unplugged after loading the PBA, there is no IP address captured which causes the server sync to fail. [DDPC-7936]
  • Added 05/2018- In some cases, the touchpad becomes unresponsive during the PBA login screen on a M300 machine with Windows 10 installed in UEFI mode and PBA enabled. [DDPC-8206]

SED Management v8.17.1

  • The Oberthur chip only smart card ID-One COSMO V7.0 is read by the PBA but fails to log in on a UEFI machine. [DDPC-7985]

Full Disk Encryption v1.1

  • When the network cable is disconnected during PBA recovery and then connected after FDE has been activated, the PBA screen on a UEFI machine displays "Loading data please wait" and freezes. [DDPC-8014]

Legacy Boot Mode FDE

For beta testing in non-production environments

  • Currently, a message of " Missing OS" appears after FDE has been activated and machine has been rebooted. [DDPC-7806]
  • In some cases, SSO to Windows issues appear in Legacy FDE. [DDPC-7926]

Bitlocker Manager v8.17.1

  • The policy line of: <PasswordUse MinimumPasswordLength="8" PasswordComplexity="Allow" Usage="Allow" />

    is forcing a secondary drive, which the D: drive is being seen at, to unlock with a password. Before the password unlock, this volume is not mount-able. It seems that once this is unlocked, the shield is not properly seeing this drive being mounted as a "Fixed disk", even though PCS is classifying it as:

    [01.15.18 15:03:37:219 PCSInfoLogger: 53 D] [PCSQuery] Retrieved drive information from PCS driver. DeviceType: 0, Device Class: 0, Device ID: SCSI\Disk&Ven_HFS512G3&Prod_9MND-3520A\4&9e95efc&0&000200

    The workaround is to change the BitLocker Policy under the Fixed Disks to: Configure Use of Passwords for Fixed Data Drives and setting this to "Disallow". The disk will use the TPM settings for the OS disk to provision a protector instead of the password that is user-defined. [DDPC-8002]
