How to Encrypt an iPod with Encryption External Media
These rules disable or enable encryption for these folders and file types for all removable devices - not just an iPod. Use care
when defining rules.
● Dell does not recommend the use of the iPod Shuffle, as unexpected results may occur.
● As iPods change, this information could also change, so caution is advised when allowing the use of iPods on Encryption
External Media-enabled computers.
● Because folder names on iPods are dependent on the model of the iPod, Dell recommends creating an exclusion policy which
covers all folder names, across all iPod models.
● To ensure encrypting an iPod via Encryption External Media does not make the device unusable, enter the following rules in
the Encryption External Media Encryption Rules policy:
-R#:\Calendars
-R#:\Contacts
-R#:\iPod_Control
-R#:\Notes
-R#:\Photos
● You can also force encryption of specific file types in the directories above. Adding the following rules will ensure that ppt,
pptx, doc, docx, xls, and xlsx files are encrypted in the directories excluded from encryption via the previous rules:
^R#:\Calendars;ppt.doc.xls.pptx.docx.xlsx
^R#:\Contacts;ppt.doc.xls.pptx.docx.xlsx
^R#:\iPod_Control;ppt.doc.xls.pptx.docx.xlsx
^R#:\Notes;ppt.doc.xls.pptx.docx.xlsx
^R#:\Photos;ppt.doc.xls.pptx.docx.xlsx
● Replacing these five rules with the following rule will force encryption of ppt, pptx, doc, docx, xls, and xlsx files in any
directory on the iPod, including Calendars, Contacts, iPod_Control, Notes, and Photos:
^R#:\;ppt.doc.xls.pptx.docx.xlsx
