Reset to Factory Defaults on Wipe IT policy rule
Description
This rule specifies whether a BlackBerry® device resets to the factory default settings when it receives the Delete all device data
and disable device IT administration command over the wireless network.
The previous name of this rule was Remote Wipe Reset to Factory Defaults.
Default value
The default value is No.
Usage
Change this rule to Yes to require a BlackBerry device to delete its stored IT policy permanently, delete all third-party applications,
and delete all user data after it receives the IT administration command.
For BlackBerry devices that are running BlackBerry® Device Software version 5.0 and later, this rule is enforced both remotely
(when an administrator erases the data on a BlackBerry device remotely) and locally (for example, when the user exceeds the
maximum password attempts or erases all data on the BlackBerry device).
