Bug fixes:

• Due to the recent changes on the Device Control section, for Already Existing Devices, when adding devices to a User, they would be duplicated on the Computer as well. Fixed.

Content Aware Protection

• To further aid with GDPR compliance, predefined GDPR policies have been added.
• The predefined policies option is now available also for Linux machines.
