controlled, the properties of the member policy are defined at the group level; i.e. the
policies in the group cannot be configured individually.

controlled policy, the policy configuration dialog opens up.
General
Options - Explorer Integration
Allow explicit encrypt
Enables the Encrypt… option in the user’s context menu (displayed when right-
clicking a folder or file). This allows the user to manually encrypt files and folders
beyond what has been defined in the central policies. If a file or folder is encrypted
according to a centrally set policy, the user cannot change this by “re-encrypting” the
file/folder with another key. The option will be visible, but grayed out (inaccessible).
