Description
Proximity authentication is an authentication method that permits a user to
unlock a BlackBerry® device using a BlackBerry device password and a
BlackBerry® Smart Card Reader when the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader is
located within Bluetooth® technology range of the BlackBerry device.
Proximity authentication does not require the user to have a smart card.
Two-factor content protection requires a BlackBerry device password, a smart
card, and an authentication certificate that is stored on a BlackBerry device to
protect the content protection key.
You can configure the length of a secure pairing PIN and use alphanumeric
characters in the secure pairing PIN.
