Five Tips on BlackBerry Security

Blackberry has gained a reputation of being the most secure mobile platform and handheld device over the decade.

Here are some tips to enhance the security of your smartphone’s security protections.

Password

Enable smartphone protection .This is usually the most important and effective security tip that could be followed for any Blackberry device.

Encrypt Device Data

Encrypt the data in your smartphone and/or microSD media card. By doing this, the information gets scrambled and hence it could not be transferred or interpreted,.

Lock Down Bluetooth Security

All latest devices of Blackberry come with radios for connecting wirelessly for media accessories and calling and for the transfer of small files.

Protect Passwords and Sensitive On-Device Data

Make use of something on the likes of RIM’s built-in Password Keeper app to prevent people from getting their hands on your personal data.

Make Sure the Device is Wiped before you Trade it

Before parting with your device for any reasons, make sure that it is wiped clean so that no sensitive info is lost.

    In my experience, most security threats are the result of simple negligence, not technological failures. None of the steps I’ve outlined here require advanced knowlegde. But if you follow them, you will have greatly improved your handheld security.
