  1. Clipboard Sync across devices: Encryption


    I think, it should be possible to configure an end-to-end encryption for the "Sync across devices" of the clipboard!

    I think, that is required, at least as an option! Even it may make the first use a little more difficult.

    Without such an encryption there is too much critical data accessible for Microsoft!

    :)

    Device Encryption - Turn On or Off for Windows 10 Mobile Phone


    thanks for the tip. yes, the phone did ask if I wanted to set a pin. I tried my tests with the pin set and without a pin set. no difference.

    it took a while, but I finally got this new update installed.

    alas, same pathology:
    • with a local Device Encryption toggled On, no dialog, no change in Storage status
    • with an activesync policy from Google Sync (Google for Work), the Requires Encryption policy is ignored by the device, so the toggle remains Off, yet the device seems to be reporting back to the server that encryption is activated because the data is syncing with the servers
    • with a native Office Enterprise that has a Requires Encryption policy, the settings toggle is moved to On and greyed out so the user cannot disable, the data is syncing immediately, yet the Storage settings do not indicate that the device is encrypted.

    last thing. with windows 8.1r2, the Office Enterprise did seem to set the encryption correctly.

    still puzzled.

    " The problem with the feature is that it only really works with Windows 10 devices, so if you have an Android phone or an iPhone, you have no way of accessing your PC’s clipboard from your phone."
