With the increase of employee-owned devices in the enterprise, there’s also an increasing risk of accidental data leak through apps and services, like email, social media, and the public cloud, which are outside of the enterprise’s control. For example, when an employee sends the latest engineering pictures to their personal email account, copies and pastes product info to a public Yammer group or tweet, or saves an in-progress sales report to their public cloud storage.
|
||||
|
||||
Enterprise data protection (EDP) helps to protect against this potential data leakage without otherwise interfering with the employee experience. EDP also helps to protect enterprise apps and data against accidental data leak on enterprise-owned devices and personal devices that employees bring to work without requiring changes to your environment or other apps. Finally, another data protection technology, Azure Rights Management also works alongside EDP to extend data protection for data that leaves the device, such as when email attachments are sent from an enterprise aware version of a rights management mail client.

## Why use EDP?
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
EDP gives you a new way to manage data security for apps and documents, along with the ability to remove access to enterprise data from both enterprise and personal devices (after enrollment in an enterprise management solution, like Intune).
|
||||
|
||||
- **Change the way you think about data security.** As an enterprise admin, you need to maintain the security and confidentiality of your enterprise data. EDP helps make sure that your enterprise data is protected on employee-owned devices, even when the employee isn’t using the device. When employees create content on an enterprise-protected device, they can choose to save it as a work document. If it's a work document, it becomes locally-maintained as enterprise data.
|
||||
@ -122,29 +61,21 @@ EDP gives you a new way to manage data security for apps and documents, along wi
|
||||
|
||||
- **Using protected apps.** Managed apps (apps that you've included on the **Protected Apps** list in your EDP policy) are allowed to access your enterprise data and will interact differently when used with unallowed, non-enterprise aware, or personal-only apps. For example, if EDP management is set to **Block**, your employees can copy and paste from one protected app to another protected app, but not to personal apps. Imagine an HR person wants to copy a job description from a protected app to the internal career website, an enterprise-protected location, but goofs and tries to paste into a personal app instead. The paste action fails and a notification pops up, saying that the app couldn’t paste because of a policy restriction. The HR person then correctly pastes to the career website without a problem.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Managed apps and restrictions.** With EDP you can control which apps can access and use your enterprise data. After adding an app to your **Protected App** list, the app is trusted with enterprise data. All apps not on this list are potentially blocked from accessing your enterprise data, depending on your EDP management-mode.
|
||||
|
||||
You don’t have to modify line-of-business apps that never touch personal data to list them as protected apps; just include them in the **Protected App** list.

|
||||
|
||||
- **Deciding your level of data access.** EDP lets you block, allow overrides, or audit employees' data sharing actions. Blocking the action stops it immediately. Allowing overrides let the employee know there's a risk, but lets him or her continue to share the data while recording and auditing the action. Silent just logs the action without stopping it; collecting info that can help you to see patterns of inappropriate sharing so you can take educative action or find apps that should be added to your **Protected App** list.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Continuous data encryption.** EDP helps protect enterprise data when it leaves a device. For example, when an employee saves to public cloud storage, or synchronizes with another device.
|
||||
|
||||
Apps such as Microsoft Word work with EDP to continue your data encryption across locations and services. These apps are being referred to as, *enterprise aware*. For example, if an employee opens EDP-encrypted content from Word, edits the content, and then tries to save the edited version with a different name, Word automatically applies EDP to the new document, maintaining the encryption.

|
||||
|
||||
- **Helping prevent accidental data disclosure to public spaces.** EDP helps protect your enterprise data from being accidentally shared to public spaces, such as public cloud storage. For example, file syncing apps not on your **Protected App** list, such as Dropbox™, won’t be able to sync encrypted files to the employee’s personal cloud storage. Instead, if an employee stores content in their Microsoft OneDrive for Business folder, which is automatically synced with OneDrive for Business (an app on your **Protected App** list), then the document maintains its encryption and can sync freely.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Helping prevent accidental data disclosure to other devices.** EDP helps prevent enterprise data from leaking when it's copied or transferred to other devices. For example, if an employee puts enterprise data on a Universal Serial Bus (USB) drive that also has personal data, the enterprise data remains encrypted while the personal data doesn’t.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Remove access to enterprise data from enterprise-protected devices.** EDP gives admins the ability to revoke enterprise data from one or many MDM-enrolled devices, while leaving personal data alone. This is a benefit when an employee leaves your company, or in the case of a stolen device. After determining that the data access needs to be removed, you can unenroll the device so when it connects to the network, the user's encryption key for the device is revoked and the enterprise data becomes unreadable.
|
||||
|
||||
**Note** System Center Configuration Manager also allows you to revoke enterprise data. However, it does it by performing a factory reset of the device.

## Current limitations with EDP
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
EDP is still in development and is not yet integrated with Azure Rights Management. This means that while you can deploy an EDP-configured policy to a protected device, that protection is restricted to a single user on the device. Additionally, the EDP-protected data must be stored on NTFS, FAT, or ExFAT file systems.
|
||||
|
||||
Use the following table to identify the scenarios that require Azure Rights Management, the behavior when Azure Rights Management is not used with EDP, and the recommended workarounds.
