The BlackBerry® Enterprise Solution uses a symmetric key encryption algorithm (Triple DES or AES) to protect all data that the BlackBerry® Enterprise Server and a BlackBerry device send between them.

The BlackBerry Enterprise Solution uses the symmetric key encryption algorithm to create message keys and master encryption keys, and uses those encryption keys to encrypt all data that the BlackBerry device sends or receives, while the data travels between the BlackBerry device and the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.

This data encryption process occurs automatically and is designed to verify that a message that a user sends from a BlackBerry device, which is outside the organization's firewall, remains protected on the transport layer until the BlackBerry Enterprise Server receives the message.
