Encrypting an expansion card
When you encrypt an expansion card, the
info on the card can be read only by your
smartphone—so no one can see what’s on
the card if it gets lost or stolen.
1Insert the expansion card into the
expansion card slot.
2Press Start and select Settings.
3Select the System tab, and then select
Encryption.
4Check the Encrypt files when placed
on a storage card box.
NOTE If your organization enforces an
encryption policy, you can see that the box
is checked but cannot uncheck it.
Accessing information on a remote computer
Remote Desktop Mobile is a technology
that allows you to use your smartphone to
connect to a remote computer in a
different location. For example, you can
connect to your work computer and have
access to all of your applications, files, and
network resources as though you were in
front of your computer at work. You can
leave applications running at work and then
see your work computer’s desktop
displayed on your smartphone, with the
same applications running.
