Can you confirm how Dynamics 365 mobile apps store offline data on devices? Is it stored in an encrypted SQLite database, and are there any official documents that confirm this?

    Dynamics 365 Offline data storage and encryption
    Hello, 

    Dynamics 365 mobile apps, offline data is stored locally on the device to ensure accessibility without an internet connection. specific storage mechanism, such as the use of an encrypted SQLite database, isn't explicitly detailed in available documentation. Hor, Microsoft emphasizes the importance of data security and provides several recommendations:

    • Data Encryption: While t application itself doesn't encrypt data by default, Microsoft advises using device-level encryption to safeguard stored data. This ca achieved through mobile device management (MDM) solutions like Microsoft Intune, which can enforce device-wide encryption policies. (learn.mrosoft.com)
    • Data Isolion: The app utilethe device's built-in sandboxing features to isolate its data from other applications, enhancing security. (community.powerplatform.com)

    For a comprehensive understanding of offline data storage and serity practices in Dynamics 365 mobile apps, you can refer to the official Microsoft documentation:
