Microsoft Information Protection File SDK for Linux/ARM64

Question

Hi,

I want to use Microsoft Information Protection (MIP) File SDK on Linux/ARM64, but it seems like all the Linux downloads only include x86_64 shared objects (while the MacOS/darwin version has arm64 support).

Is there planned support for MIP File SDK on Linux/ARM64? Are there any recommended workarounds?

Thanks

@Nati C - Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.

Currently, the Microsoft Information Protection (MIP) File SDK for Linux only supports x86_64 architecture. There is no official support for ARM64 architecture yet. However, you can try running the x86_64 shared objects on ARM64 architecture using emulation or virtualization.

Another option is to use the MIP File SDK for MacOS/darwin version with ARM64 support. You can try running it on ARM64 Linux using emulation or virtualization.

Please note that these workarounds are not officially supported by Microsoft, and there may be compatibility issues or performance degradation.
