When using a device outside of a controlled wireless network, wearables require higher communications security with respect to encryption, information integrity, and non-repudiation. Since wearable computers are quite small, most do not come equipped with higher security features and any data that is sent and received is vulnerable. Consequently,
BlackBerry Work
's support for wearables is confined to notifications and reminders.

    BlackBerry UEM
     12.11 or later. For more information, see the BlackBerry UEM Configuration content. To enable the UPN feature for
    BlackBerry Work
    Docs
    , this feature requires
