About encryption keys
If your BlackBerry® device is associated with an email account that uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server or BlackBerry® Desktop
Redirector, your device is designed to use an encryption key to protect data as it travels between the BlackBerry Enterprise Server or
BlackBerry Desktop Redirector and your device.
You should generate a new encryption key every 2 weeks.
