Mobile v1.1
When Office documents or macro-enabled documents are created on an Android or iOS client that is not connected to the Dell Server,
encryption keys are generated offline and then uploaded to the Dell Server the next time the device is online.
New geofencing policies for Android and iOS clients allow administrators to restrict protected office document and .xen file access to
a specified region. Regions currently include the United States and Canada.
