● Management Console:
○ Currently, when the administrator performs a mass import to an administrator-defined Endpoint Group and case does not
match exactly, the import fails. [DDPS-9967, DDPSUS-2891]
● Recovery Portal:
○ Currently, if an administrator copies the logged-in URL of the Recovery Portal and pastes it in another browser, the
administrator is not prompted to log in again. [DDPS-9961]
○ Currently, if logging in on same the browser as superadmin to the Management Console and then on a separate tab

New Features and Functionality v10.2.12
● Cryptographic Next Generation certificates are now supported.
● For customers who have purchased VMware Carbon Black and Dell Encryption per-device from Dell, support is now available
for on-the-box entitlements.
● This functionality applies to the Management Console:
○ The legacy management console has been deprecated. The legacy login and corresponding URLs are no longer available.
○ Microsoft Edge (Chromium) is supported.
○ For newly deployed Security Management Servers, the Sync Users at PBA Activation policy in the Pre-Boot
Authentication policy group is now enabled by default to sync all active user accounts to the PBA during activation.
This helps to ensure that users can log in after PBA activation and reduces occurrences where users must perform a
manual recovery.
○ In Windows Encryption > BitLocker Encryption, the Disable BitLocker on Self-Encrypting Drives policy has been renamed
to Block BitLocker when other Dell Encryption technologies are present, and the hover text has been clarified.
○ The Device Detail report in Reporting > Manage Reports > Create New Report > Device Detail, contains a new column
titled Enabled Technologies.
