BES setting External File System Encryption Level and Encryption On On-Board Device Memory Media Files

jitan · ‎02-14-2013

Dear all,

Currently our BES server has this setting enabled. "External File System Encryption Level"

We set to "Encrypt to User Password and Device Key (including multi-media directories)"

Does this means all our BlackBerry devices' internal and external memory have been encrypted including the media files?

Do we still require to turn on this setting ? "Encryption On On-Board Device Memory Media Files"

I find it confusing for this two options. hope someone can help to clarify. Thank you!

on os 4.5 and higher devices all have

device memory - OS, Apps and storage

SD card storage - external removable storage.

Some devices like Bold, Storm and Torch have a special internal memory for storage that does not affect OS storage

internal memory for storage - usually 1 gig or more depending on device

So you would need to apply both settings if you need to encrypt all data
