Protecting email data sent to
iOS
devices using the
BlackBerry Secure Gateway

The
BlackBerry Secure Gateway
provides a secure connection through the
BlackBerry Infrastructure
and
BlackBerry UEM
to your organization's mail server for
iOS
and
iPadOS
devices that are activated with
MDM controls
.
If you plan to use the
BlackBerry Secure Gateway
, you must verify that your organization has the appropriate licenses. For more information, see the Licensing content.
Enabling the
BlackBerry Secure Gateway
allows devices to send and receive work email without requiring you to expose your mail server outside the firewall or locate your mail server in a DMZ. To enable the
BlackBerry Secure Gateway
, select the "Enable
BlackBerry Secure Gateway
" setting in the email profile.
If your environment includes
iOS
or
iPadOS
13.0 or later devices and your organization's mail server is configured to use
Microsoft
modern authentication, you must select the "Use OAuth for authentication" setting in the email profile and configure
BlackBerry Secure Gateway
to use OAuth for authentication with the mail server.
If you configured server groups to support regional connections to the
BlackBerry Infrastructure
, you can direct
BlackBerry Secure Gateway
traffic to a specific regional connection by associating the email profile with the appropriate server group.
