Security Technical Overview
Security measure
By default, the discoverable mode option on BlackBerry
devices is turned off. The devices are not visible to other
Bluetooth enabled devices. A BlackBerry device never
enters into discoverable mode unless the user turns on that
feature.
You can set the Limit Discoverable Time IT policy rule to True
to allow users to turn on the discoverable mode option for
2 minutes only.
You can use the Disable Bluetooth IT policy rule to control
the Bluetooth wireless transceiver on BlackBerry devices.
By default, the Bluetooth wireless transceiver on BlackBerry
devices is turned off.
Users must request connections between their BlackBerry
devices and other Bluetooth enabled devices. They must
type a password called a passkey, which is a shared secret
key, to complete a connection or pairing with another
Bluetooth enabled device. A user's passkey must be
between one and 16 characters long, and it is dependent on
the target peripheral device.
Users can specify whether their BlackBerry devices use a
passkey to encrypt data that the users send over a Bluetooth
connection. You can use the Require Encryption IT policy
rule to require that Bluetooth enabled BlackBerry devices
use encryption over all Bluetooth connections.
When BlackBerry devices try to pair with other Bluetooth
enabled devices, the BlackBerry devices request a
combination key for authentication. The combination key is
unique to a BlackBerry device and the Bluetooth enabled
device that it is paired with.
The BlackBerry devices prompt the users each time that
other Bluetooth enabled devices try to connect to them.

Managing Bluetooth enabled BlackBerry devices
Benefit
Potential users with malicious intent cannot locate
BlackBerry devices easily and compromise them.
The BlackBerry devices are discoverable for a very limited
time to allow pairing with another device.
When the Bluetooth wireless transceiver is turned off,
Bluetooth wireless technology is not operational on the
BlackBerry devices, and the devices are not open to
malicious use of their Bluetooth technology.
Users are aware of attempts to connect or pair with
Bluetooth enabled devices because their BlackBerry devices
prompt them for a passkey.
Communication over the Bluetooth connection is protected.
Combination keys are designed to prevent the interception
of wireless communication between two devices by a third
device that was previously paired with one of the devices.
BlackBerry device users can decline connection requests
from Bluetooth enabled devices.
