Work Folders and Data Security 

Security has always been a top priority of Microsoft under all its technologies. It is without a doubt that once the data is accessible via the internet and not just VPN, the data can be intercepted and security breaches may occur. 

However, Microsoft has stated that very precisely and various techniques have been enforced for data protection like Encryption and Wipe, Encryption on the wire (via https) and Device password enforcement. All these features attract customers so that their data is accessible as well as safe:

• Device password enforcement

A group policy is essential to enforce passwords. It can however, not reach the unmanaged devices. A basic privacy policy is provided under Work folders setup to make admins sure about the protection of devices.

• Folder Redirection (FR) or not?

Another feature is Folder Redirection that helps in Accessing sensitive information/content under special folders. This feature is used in combination with Offline Files to allow access to applications and files that exist offline.

• Data protection (encryption and wipe)

To avoid data leakage, Work Folders offers the admin’s data encryption facility for better management of unmanaged devices.
