About encryption keys

If your handheld is integrated with an email account using the BlackBerry Enterprise Server or BlackBerry Desktop Redirector, encryption keys protect data as it travels between your BlackBerry Enterprise Server or BlackBerry Desktop Redirector and the handheld. Encryption keys are generated automatically, but you can manually regenerate keys at any time.

Regenerate encryption keys

If your handheld is integrated with an email account using the BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 3.6 or earlier for Microsoft® Exchange, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 2.2 or earlier for IBM® Lotus® Domino®, or if you use the BlackBerry Desktop Redirector to forward email to your handheld, update the encryption keys using the BlackBerry Desktop Software. For more information, refer to the BlackBerry Desktop Software Online Help.

About the password keeper

You can use the password keeper to generate random passwords containing letters, numbers, and symbols.

The first time that you open the password keeper, you must create a password keeper password. Information in the password keeper is encrypted and is only decrypted when you type this password.

BlackBerry specifications

BlackBerry Limited, once synonymous with the smartphone revolution, has evolved significantly since its inception. Initially known for its wireless communication innovations, BlackBerry carved a niche for itself in the security-conscious enterprise market, offering devices that were both reliable and secure.

One of the standout features of BlackBerry smartphones was their renowned QWERTY keyboard. This physical keyboard, combined with a user-friendly interface, made typing emails and messages a breeze, attracting business professionals and tech enthusiasts alike. The introduction of the BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) in 2005 further solidified its reputation, offering users a secure, instant messaging platform that facilitated real-time communication without the typical SMS fees.

In terms of security, BlackBerry boasts a robust reputation. The company's devices and software are built on the premise of advanced encryption standards, ensuring that users' data remained safe from potential breaches. BlackBerry's Enterprise Mobility Suite, which includes features like secure file sharing and document management, became a staple for enterprises looking to protect sensitive corporate information.

BlackBerry also pioneered push email technology, enabling users to receive emails almost instantaneously. This was a game-changer for busy professionals who needed to stay connected on the go. Coupled with its efficient software, BlackBerry was able to offer longer battery life compared to many competitors at the time, further enhancing its appeal.

As the smartphone landscape shifted towards touchscreens, BlackBerry adapted with the launch of devices such as the BlackBerry Z10 and the BlackBerry Priv. The Z10 marked a significant shift to a full touchscreen experience while the Priv, powered by Android, showcased BlackBerry's commitment to blending its secure ecosystem with the vast app ecosystem Android offers.

Beyond hardware, BlackBerry has shifted its focus towards software and services in recent years. The company now emphasizes cybersecurity, offering a suite of tools and technologies for IoT security, enterprise solutions, and endpoint management.

In summary, BlackBerry's legacy is rooted in its commitment to security, innovative communication solutions, and a user-centric design. While it may now be more of a software-focused company, its impact on the mobile industry and its pioneering technologies continue to resonate within the realms of communication and data security.
