13 IT policy rule Description Maximum Connection Heartbeat Period This rule specifies the maximum h eartbeat period, in seconds. During each heartbeat period, the paired Blac kBerry device or computer sends a heartbeat, which the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader acknowledges. If either side does not send or acknowledge a heartbeat in the maximum heartb[...]

14 IT policy rule Description Maximum PC Long Term Timeout This rule specifies the maximum time, in hours, after a computer and the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader open the secure pairing connection between them that th e computer and the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader delete the secure pairing information.

Card Reader and the BlackBerry device or computer. By default, the secure pairing PIN is 8 characters long and is case-sensitive. If your organization uses BlackBerry Smart Card Reader version 2.0 and later and BlackBerry® Device Software version 5.0 and later, you can change the length of the secure pairing PIN using the Minimum PIN Entry Mode IT[...]

4. The BlackBerry Smart Card Reader creates a list of all the algorithms that it supports and sends the supported algorithms list to the BlackBerry device or computer. 5. The BlackBerry device or computer searches the list for a match with one of its own supported algorithms. • If a match is not available, the BlackBerry device or computer sends [...]

The connection key establishment protoc ol uses the ECDH algorithm that th e initial key establishment protocol negotiates. The ECDH algorithm provides Perfect Forward Secrecy, which uses the key that protects data to prevent the protocol from deriving previous or subsequent encryp tion keys. Each run of the connection key establishment protocol us[...]

For more information about variables used in this process, see “ BlackBerry Smart Card Reader shared cryptosystem parameters ”. The connection key establishment protocol can stop at any point if an error occurs. For more information, see “ Connection key establishment protocol errors ”. Encrypting and authen tica ting da ta on the applica t[...]

• The BlackBerry device binds to the installed smart ca rd automatically by storing the smart card binding information in a BlackBerry device NV store location, which is designed to be inaccessible to the user. For more information, see “Smart card binding information ”. Confirming that a BlackBerry device is bound t o the correct smart card [...]
