To use the 
BlackBerry Gatekeeping Service
 with 
Microsoft Office 365
, you must configure the mobile device access policy in 
Microsoft Office 365
 to quarantine devices by default.
  • If your organization’s default access level for 
    Exchange ActiveSync
     is set to allow, and you have users setup and successfully synchronizing their devices, you must make sure that these users have a personal exemption or device rule associated to their user account or device before you set the default access level to quarantine. If they do not, then they are quarantined and their devices do not synchronize until they are allowed by 
    BlackBerry UEM
