security
The BlackBerry Enterprise Solution consists of various products and components that are designed to extend your
organization’s communication methods to
BlackBerry devices. The BlackBerry Enterprise Solution is designed to help
protect data that is in transit at all points between a device and the BlackBerry Enterprise Server. To help protect data that
is in transit over the wireless network, the
BlackBerry Enterprise Server and device use symmetric key cryptography to
encrypt the data sent between them. The BlackBerry Enterprise Solution is designed to prevent third parties, including
wireless service providers, from accessing your organization's potentially sensitive information in a decrypted format.
The BlackBerry Enterprise Solution uses confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity, which are principles for information
security, to help protect your organization from data loss or alteration.
Principles Description
confidentiality The BlackBerry Enterprise Solution uses symmetric key cryptography to help
make sure that only intended recipients can view the contents of email
messages.
integrity The BlackBerry Enterprise Solution uses symmetric key cryptography to help
protect every email message that the device sends and to help prevent third
parties from decrypting or altering the message data.
Only the BlackBerry Enterprise Server and the device know the value of the keys
that they use to encrypt messages and recognize the format of a decrypted and
decompressed message. The BlackBerry Enterprise Server or the device rejects
a message automatically if it is not encrypted with keys that they recognize as
valid.
authenticity Before the BlackBerry Enterprise Server sends data to the device, the device
authenticates with the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to prove that the device
knows the device transport key that is used to encrypt data.
