Passwords and locking
There are several types of locks, PINs, and passwords that you can use to help protect your BlackBerry
device.
If you use your device for work, your organization might already have security settings in place, such as
requiring a password to unlock your device.
BlackBerry ID
A BlackBerry ID is an email address and password that gives you access to BlackBerry websites, apps,
and services. If you change your BlackBerry device, a BlackBerry ID helps you to transfer data to your
new device. Make sure that you use the same BlackBerry ID for all of your BlackBerry devices.
Log in with your BlackBerry ID to do the following and much more:
• Keep track of your app purchases and payment options from the BlackBerry World storefront.
• Make the most of BBM features, such as backing up and moving BBM contacts to a new BlackBerry
device.
• Start and stop BlackBerry Protect.
Password locking and screen locking
While your device is locked, you can still receive notifications of new email and text messages (SMS and
MMS), make an emergency phone call, view your battery charge level, set an alarm, or take a picture.
To conserve battery power and avoid accidental key presses, lock the screen. To help to avoid
unauthorized use of your device, you need to set a device password.
In your display and security settings, you can set your device to lock itself after a certain amount of
inactivity. You can also write a custom message that displays on the locked screen.
If you forget your password, it can't be recovered. BlackBerry recommends that you back up your data
regularly. By default, for security reasons your device data is deleted when an incorrect password is
entered ten times.
BlackBerry Balance and the work space password
If you associate your device with your organization's network, your administrator might turn on
BlackBerry Balance technology. BlackBerry Balance is designed to separate and secure areas of your
device as work-only or personal-only.
