About the key store

The key store on your BlackBerry® device stores the
following items:

Personal PGP® keys (public and private key pairs)
PGP public keys downloaded from a Lightweight
Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server
PGP public keys imported from a message
Secure Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions

The key store is protected by a key store password.

You might need to type this password when adding
items to or deleting items from the key store, or when
an application tries to access your private key to sign
or decrypt a message.
