Extending messaging security using IBM Lotus Notes encryption
By default, if your organization's environment includes BlackBerry® Enterprise Server version 4.1 or later for IBM®
Lotus® Domino® and IBM® Lotus Notes® API version 7.0 or later, a BlackBerry device can decrypt messages that are
encrypted using Lotus Notes encryption.
In BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 5.0 or later and BlackBerry® Device Software version 5.0 or later, a BlackBerry
device user can encrypt messages using Lotus Notes encryption. When the BlackBerry device user creates, forwards,
or replies to a message, the BlackBerry device user can indicate whether the BlackBerry Enterprise Server must
encrypt the message before it sends the message to the recipients.
To use Lotus Notes encryption on the BlackBerry device, the BlackBerry device user must import a copy of the Lotus
Notes .id file into the user's message database using the BlackBerry Desktop Software or Lotus® iNotes®. If your
organization's environment includes Lotus Domino version 8.5.1 or later and BlackBerry Enterprise Server version
4.1 or later, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server can automatically synchronize the copy of the Lotus Notes .id file on
the BlackBerry device with the latest copy that is in the Lotus Notes ID vault. If your organization's environment
includes Lotus Domino version 8.5.1 or later and BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 5.0 SP1 or later, you can
configure the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to import the Lotus Notes .id file automatically into the BlackBerry device
from the Lotus Notes ID vault.
To require the BlackBerry device user to use Lotus Notes encryption when forwarding or replying to messages, you
can configure the Require Notes Native Encryption For Outgoing Messages IT policy rule. To prevent a BlackBerry
device user from forwarding or replying to Lotus Notes protected messages, you can configure the Disable Notes
Native Encryption Forward And Reply IT policy rule.
Configure BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances to import Lotus Notes .id files to
BlackBerry devices
If your organization's environment includes IBM® Lotus® Domino® version 8.5.1 or later and BlackBerry® Enterprise
Server version 5.0 SP1 or later, you can configure the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to export the IBM® Lotus
Notes® .id file automatically from the Lotus Notes ID vault and send it to the BlackBerry device.
1.
Copy the BlackBerry Enterprise Server installation files to the computer that hosts a BlackBerry Enterprise Server
instance.
2.
Extract the contents to a folder on the computer.
3.
At the command prompt, navigate to <extracted_folder>\tools.
4.
Perform one of the following actions:
• To configure all BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances to import Lotus Notes .id files, type traittool.exe -
global -trait EnableNNEIDFileProvisioning -set true.
• To configure a specific BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance to import Lotus Notes .id files for the user
accounts that you assigned to the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance, type traittool.exe -server
<instance_name> -trait EnableNNEIDFileProvisioning -set true, where <instance_name> is the name of the
BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance.
5.
In the Windows® Services, restart the BlackBerry Controller service and BlackBerry Dispatcher service.
