Encrypting Data on the Windows Device Client

You can use Afaria to enable data encryption. Afaria data encryption uses a component called Data Security Manager, which is available only with the correct license of Sybase Unwired Platform.

1. Contact Sybase about obtaining the correct license for device data encryption.
2. With the correct license in place, choose the client type and level of encryption desired.
   Only some device clients are shared by Unwired Server and Afaria:

   Encryption level	Device client	Implemented by
   Full disk	Windows	Administrator
   PIM data	Windows and Windows Mobile	Administrator selects th PIM data that Afaria can encrypt calendar, e-mail, and so on.
   Path/folder	Windows and Windows Mobile/Windows Mobile Professional	Administrator defines the encryption target. However, a user can copy files to the encrypted area of a disk.
   Path/folder	Windows Mobile Professional	User defines encryption target.

   You can find complete information about configuring data encryption in Afaria documentation. See Afaria Reference|Components > Data Security Manager for Handheld Clients > Encryption Options guide for details. For information about which subtypes of Windows Mobile are supported by the Data Security Manager License, see the system requirements documented in the Afaria Release Notes.
