Password Keeper - Blackberry 8100 User Manual

About encryption keys
If your BlackBerry® device is integrated with an account that uses the BlackBerry Enterprise Server or
BlackBerry Desktop Redirector, your device uses an encryption key. The encryption key is designed to
protect data as it travels between the BlackBerry Enterprise Server or BlackBerry Desktop Redirector
and the device to ensure that the data remains as secure as possible. You can generate the key from
your device. You should generate a new encryption key every two weeks.
Generate an encryption key
Verify that your BlackBerry® device is associated with an email account that uses BlackBerry Enterprise
Server version 4.0 or later. If your device is associated with an email account that uses an earlier version
of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, see the BlackBerry Device Software Online Help for more
information.

About content compression
Content compression is designed to reduce the size of the data that is stored on your BlackBerry® device
while maintaining the integrity of that data. If content compression is turned on, your device compresses
all device data, including calendar entries, tasks, memos, contacts, and messages. You should keep
content compression turned on.
If content compression and content protection are turned on, your device compresses your device data
before encrypting it.
