• BlackBerry security certificate - Software Bug - Z30 Z30 browser

  Born of the recent revelation of bug "Software", Steve Gibson created a special site for different web browsers desktop and mobile visit - https://www.grc.com/revocation.htm - where you can throw in- https://revoked.grc.com.

You may be surprised and distrurbed. »

  Using the browser in my Z30 to access the https://revokded.grc.com, it is troubling to see the web page said: "... you use a web browser to revocation without !

  Going on this site for my laptop and desktop with Windows 8.1 computer, I was refused to open this Web page.

  Is this a flaw in the Z30 browser? If not, can I make corrections in its settings?

• BBM I forgot my password question and blackberry security

  Hi, I forgot my password and the blackberry security question, I don't want to lose all my stops somehow and the downloaded items of the Blackberry world... is there another way? thnx

  Using a PC browser, go to www.bbid.com and see if you can reset your password.

  When you set up your BBID it would be you sent an email asking you to verify your BBID by clicking on a link in this email. If you checked you can reset your password to www.bbid.com without a security answer.

  If you do not check the BBID then you need TO answer your security question. If you can't answer, then, if you still have the original e-mail, you can use it to remove the BBID and re-create it. You will lose all data associated with it like BBM contacts, however.

  If you do not have the original email, you will need to create a new BBID with a new email address.

• BlackBerry smartphones remove security settings of 8820 without access to PC

  I recently acquired a 8820, but I can't remove the security settings.  I'm currntly do not have access to a PC to connect the device to.  is there a way to delete the settings?  Thank you.

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  Exactly what 'security settings' you are asking about? Only these words, there are a lot of possibilities...

  My guess - if your BB has a policy due to have been associated with a BES environment

  • KB30076 How to check for an it on a BlackBerry smartphone policy

  and if you want that political removed, then see this KB:

  • KB14202 How to remove a policy from IT to a BlackBerry smartphone

  You will notice that methods 1, 2 and 3 require the admin BES to do something... If you are no longer associated with the BES, then these methods do not work, which leaves... method 4 not requiring connection to a PC.

  On the other hand, if I guessed wrong, then please specify exactly what 'Security Settings' you're curious about.

  Thank you and let us know!

• BlackBerry smartphones is necessary/count of BlackBerry security features?

  I noticed there are wipe them Handheld function is supposed to prevent any data from the BlackBerry to all recovery and Content Protection prevents data to be accessible from any other device. Can someone explain;

  (1) what is happening in the Pocket to wipe?

  (2) how does it end even on data recovery after a reset?

  (3) how Content Protection works in the first place?

  Thank you!

  Please read the following articles to the public knowledge base:

• BlackBerry Smartphones, how secured is the characteristic of the wipe on the BlackBerry? Should I be worried?

  Before starting playback, please understand that I am a stickler for security and other security gurus to help me with my dilemma. I'm new to BlackBerry phones, but not a beginner in the scene full tech. "BOLD" subsection includes issues that I really want to learn more about.

  Right here. I have an iPhone with OS 1.0 and origin, we couldn't guarantee wipes. Actually, to fill the disk with music and videos so that it would replace all the information. Had to do this many times (5-10 x times) also, because just fill out once wasn't enough to write the data. But with the 2.0, Apple where you can have the iPhone do a safe clear by writing zeros to the drive. It took a while (1 hour or more), but it does the job.

  Well, I grew up now and I moved to the BlackBerry platform. I started the year with the "BOLD" last and will move into the Curve 8900. But before I do, the wife wants to sell me the "BOLD" first. But before I sold it, I want to ensure all wipe top. All DIY guides say to go to options > Security > and wipe the device and type the word "blackberry". Great! Now I know how to do it.

  But what I want to know is now the wiping method is it secure? Can someone, if someone restore my contacts, passwords or anything that has been stored? I do what I did for my original iPhone to the "BOLD" and fill it with data and wipe the Unit 5 times or more?

  Wipe is a safe action.

  I am not aware that someone can restore information after the memory has been erased.

• BlackBerry Smartphones bluetooth security

  When I configure a device as safe or trusted, I write the pass whenever I connect with this device. After writing 2 passwords... I have to choose "Receive via bluetooth" or something like that, if I want to be able to receive data from my TRUSTED device.

  I mean... Is it possible to not have to choose "Receive via bluetooth" and do not write the password every time?

  It's very frustrating. If I have my blackberry on my bedside table I have to get up and go to write the password, then select the 'Receive by bluetooth' thing whenever I want to receive a file. If I receive 50 files...

  If I want to get up, I just connect the blackberry by USB.

  So please, y at - it an idea?

• BlackBerry Smartphone PIN security

  I downloaded an app from BB App World. Developers, MMMOOO, request the PIN phone to activate the application completely. Is it safe?

  Hi and welcome to the Forums!

  In general, Yes. A lot of apps is activated by a key code that they send you. And this code will not work on your device. Many developers tie so the activation code on the BB SPINDLE (which is unique in the world) so that the user cannot distribute to everyone.

  See you soon!

• Z10 stuck blackBerry security wipe

  I just wiped my device security using the BlackBerry link and now my camera is stuck to the next screen

  http://i.imgur.com/KzZcxU0.jpg

  When I go to BB-Link and try to 'Reload', it asks to press the power button until the device is off. The unit get off but it gets activated immediately and get stuck at the top of the screen.

  The BB-link said it is impossible to connect to the device and therefore cannot continue.

  Can anyone help?

  PS:

  This device is provided to me by my company and is not a personal device.

  It is not finished wiping. The security wipe can take a few hours and up to 10-12 hours depending on the CASE, to data encryption enabled and the amount of data you had on the device.

• Z30 blackBerry security wipe icon taped Z30

  I saved my data link BB to reset the factory settings on it. After you click reset link BB asked me to remove the phone from the computer. And wipe security with a blue icon turning light in a black circle stuck between an hour.

  I just want to know if is it normal or not? and how long will it take?

  Thank you

  I did not a security wipe in ages, so I don't know what the icon looks like these days. I would say that a security wipe can take hours to complete if there is much data on your phone.

  You might be best to leave all night to see if he is ready to leave in the morning (unless someone else can confirm that the frozen icon is not a good thing and other measures should be taken).

  I hope that helps you.

• Where is the support for IOS security vulnerability policy

  I am considering an iPad 2 Air for myself.

  I have many android (phones and tablets) devices that are vulnerable to the frame and the combination of Samsung or LG and carriers will not roll the provided Google of patches on their devices.  Not a single device of mine will be patched.  I will not stop to buy more devices stuck in that model of support for fix hardware manufacturer and the accepting carrier of patch.

  This only leaves Google Nexus range of products and Apple's IOS devices for review as far as I know.  Apple products are a bit expensive for me, but I may have no choice.

  I tried, but I couldn't find a documented statement of political support from Apple.  Yes, I know that they still support the iPhone 4S with IOS 9.1, but I want to see the current policy of public support.  Someone at - it links, I've yet to find?  How long is their guarantee to security patches?  I don't have the latest clever features, I want to known vulnerabilities and not-publicly-known patched.  Apple said the timeline for security patches?

  Thank you.

  To the best of my knowledge Apple never gave a lifetime for devices or for them to receive iOS updates.

  I can tell you that my iPad 2, which is a little more than 4 years, can be iOS9 and updates that come with it.

  Beyond history, there is no guarantee for a period of support.

• security vulnerability "deadlock" to the current version 38.0.1

  Just got an email from freeware to gizmo describing a new threat to browsers, including the current Firefox.

  Hello skp53106, it is more of a vulnerability that can be exploited in Web servers down to levels of encryption that are easier to break. a fix will land in the next version of firefox version to mitigate these attacks to downgrade the part of the browser.
  so far, you could use this addon that disables the suite of encryption vulnerable to attack: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/disable-dhe/
