PGP protected messages PGP protected message basics About signing and encrypting messages If your email account uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports this feature, you can digitally sign or encrypt messages to add another level of security to email and PIN messages that you send from your BlackBerry device. Digital signatures are designed to help recipients verify the authenticity and integrity of messages that you send. When you digitally sign a message using your private key, recipients use your public key to verify that the message is from you and that the message has not been changed. Encryption is designed to keep messages confidential. When you encrypt a message, your device uses the recipient’s public key to encrypt the message. Recipients use their private key to decrypt the message. To send an encrypted PIN message, you must have a PIN and an email address for the contact in your contact list. Your device uses the email address in your contact list to locate a PGP® key or certificate for the contact. Sign or encrypt a message You can sign or encrypt email and PIN messages. 1. When you are composing a message, change the Encoding field. 2. If necessary, change the Classification field.

Your device has a Normal profile and five other preloaded profiles: Loud, Medium, Vibrate Only, Silent, and Phone Calls Only. You can change the tones in any preloaded profile to an audio file that is stored in your device memory or on a media card, or you can create additional profiles. The All Alerts Off profile cannot be changed. By default, some of the settings in the preloaded profiles are based on the settings in the Normal profile. For example, when you change the ring tone in the Normal profile, the ring tone in the Loud profile, Medium profile, and Phone Calls Only profile is automatically updated. If you do not want specific settings for a preloaded profile to update automatically when you change the corresponding setting in the Normal profile, you can manually change the settings in that preloaded profile. You can create contact alerts, which alert you when particular contacts call you or send you a message. Contact alerts are always turned on, and do not turn off unless you select the All Alerts Off profile.

Synchronizing tasks and memos About synchronization The wireless data synchronization feature is designed to synchronize organizer data (contacts, calendar entries, tasks, and memos) between your BlackBerry® device and the email application on your computer over the wireless network. The wireless email reconciliation feature is designed to reconcile email between your device and the email application on your computer over the wireless network. When you file or delete email on your device, these email should be filed or deleted in your email application. Likewise, any changes that you make to email in the email application on your computer should be reflected on your device. In rare cases, if your device does not recognize fields in a contact, calendar entry, or email account, some data or email cannot be synchronized or reconciled. If wireless data synchronization or wireless email reconciliation is not available on your device or you have turned off these features, you can use the synchronization tool of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software to synchronize your organizer data and email.

Smart cards About using a smart card with your device Smart cards store certificates and private keys. You can use a smart card reader to import certificates from a smart card to the key store on your BlackBerry® device, but you cannot import private keys. As a result, private key operations such as signing and decryption use the smart card, and public key operations such as verification and encryption use the public certificates on your device. If you use a smart card certificate to authenticate with your device, after you connect your smart card reader to your device, your device requests authentication from the smart card each time that you unlock your device. You can install multiple smart card drivers on your device, including drivers for microSD smart cards, but you can only authenticate to one smart card at a time. If you are authenticating using a microSD smart card and you want to transfer media files between your microSD smart card and your computer in mass storage mode, you must temporarily turn off two-factor authentication or select a different authentication option. If the S/MIME Support Package for BlackBerry® devices is installed on your device, you can use smart card certificates to send S/MIMEprotected messages. Turn on two-factor authentication To perform this task, you must have set a password for your BlackBerry® device and have the smart card password that you received with your smart card. 1.
