Periodic Document Encryption can be configured on either an individual client or a client group. If Periodic Document Encryption is enabled on a client from both the client group and client properties dialog boxes, the client-level settings will override any settings configured at the client group level.
DLP settings are only available for Windows or Mac laptop clients. If you are accessing DLP settings for a client group, the client group must contain only Windows or Mac laptop clients.
