BlackBerry Dynamics
apps on
iOS
and
Android
devices.
BlackBerry Dynamics
: SCEP profile setting
Description
Subject
This setting specifies the subject for the certificate, if required for your organization's SCEP configuration. Type the subject in the format "/CN=
<common_name>
,O=
<domain_name>
" If the profile is for multiple users, you can use a variable, for example: %UserDistinguishedName%.
SAN type
This setting specifies the subject alternative name type for the certificate, if it is required.
Possible values:
  • RFC 822 name
  • Uniform resource identifier
  • NT principal name
  • DNS name
The default value is "RFC 822 name."
SAN value
This setting specifies the subject alternative representation of the certificate subject. The value must be an email address, the DNS name of the CA server, the fully qualified URL of the server, or principal name.
The "SAN type" setting determines the appropriate value to specify. If set to "RFC822 name," the value must be a valid email address. If set to "URI," the value must be a valid URL that includes the protocol and FQDN or IP address. If set to "NT principal name," the value must be a valid principal name. If set to "DNS name," the value must be a valid FQDN.
Key algorithm
This setting specifies the algorithm used to generate the client key pair. You must select an algorithm that is supported by your CA.
Possible values:
RSA
RSA
strength
This setting specifies the
RSA
strength used to generate the client key pair. You must enter a key strength that is supported by your CA.
This setting is valid only if the "Key algorithm" setting is set to "
RSA
.".
Possible values:
  • 2048
  • 4096
The default value is "2048."
Encryption algorithm
This setting specifies the encryption algorithm used for the certificate enrollment request.
Possible values:
  • Triple DES
  • AES (128-bit)
  • AES (196-bit)
  • AES (256-bit)
The default value is "Triple DES."
Hash function
This setting specifies the hash function used for the certificate enrollment request.
Possible values:
  • SHA-256
  • SHA-384
  • SHA-512
The default value is "SHA-256."
Certificate thumbprint
This setting specifies the hexadecimal-encoded hash of the root certificate for the CA. You can use one of the following algorithms to specify the thumbprint: SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512. MD5 is supported only if "Enable FIPS" is not selected in the
BlackBerry Dynamics
profile.
Automatic renewal
This setting specifies how many days before a certificate expires that automatic certificate renewal occurs.
The possible values are 1 to 365.
The default value is "30."
Key usage
This setting specifies the cryptographic operations that can be performed using the public key that is contained in the certificate.
Possible selections:
  • Digital signature
  • Non-repudiation
  • Key encipherment
  • Data encipherment
  • Key agreement
  • Key certificate signing
  • CRL signing
  • Encipher only
  • Decipher only
The default selections are "Digital signature," "Key encipherment," and "Key agreement."
Extended key usage
This setting specifies the purpose of the key that is contained in the certificate.
Possible selections:
  • Server authentication
  • Client authentication
  • Code signing
  • Email protection
  • Time stamping
  • OCSP signing
  • Secure shell client
  • Secure shell server
The default selection is "Client authentication."
App restrictions
This setting specifies which
BlackBerry Dynamics
apps can use the certificate.
Possible values:
  • Allow all apps to use certificates
  • Allow specified apps to use certificates
The default selection is "Allow all apps to use certificates."
Apps allowed to use SCEP
This setting specifies the
BlackBerry Dynamics
apps that are allowed to use SCEP certificates.
This setting is valid only if the "App restrictions" setting is set to "Allow specified apps to use certificates."
Delete expired certificates
This setting specifies whether the device deletes expired certificates.
Remove duplicate certificates
This setting specifies whether the device deletes duplicate certificates. The device deletes the certificate that has the earliest start date.
