About PGP keys

If your work email account uses a BlackBerry Enterprise Server that supports this feature, you can download PGP keys over the wireless network from a certificate server provided by your administrator. Depending on your organization, enrollment with the PGP Universal Server might be required and might also occur automatically.

PGP keys allow you to send and receive PGP messages using your BlackBerry smartphone. Your smartphone supports RSA, DSA, and Diffie-Hellman keys.
