Restricting user access to content on web servers

You can prevent BlackBerry device users from accessing specific web servers using the BlackBerry Browser or applications on BlackBerry devices. To specify the web servers that you want users to access, you can turn on pull authorization to restrict access to all types of web content and create pull rules to specify a list of web servers that you permit users to access. Alternatively, you can create pull rules that specify a list of restricted web servers.

When you create pull rules, you can specify whether users must authenticate using RSA authentication, integrated Windows authentication, or both before the users can access the web servers.

Restrict requests for content on web servers from BlackBerry devices

Turn on pull authorization for a BlackBerry MDS Connection Service to restrict the web addresses that users assigned to that BlackBerry MDS Connection Service can request when the users connect to the Internet or to your organization's intranet from their BlackBerry devices.

1.In the BlackBerry Administration Service, in the Servers and components menu, expand BlackBerry Solution topology > BlackBerry Domain > Component view > MDS Connection Service.

2.Click the instance that you want to change.

3.Click Edit instance.

4.In the Access control section, in the Pull authorization drop-down list, click Yes.
