your administrator.
Security settings
You can set and change the security settings for applications on your BlackBerry device, and set up parental controls to
restrict or limit access to features and content. You can use a smart card, and import certificates from your computer to
increase the security of data on your device. And if you need to permanently delete all data from your device, you can wipe
it.
Setting security permissions for apps
BlackBerry 10 OS includes application permissions that are designed to let you control the information and features that an
application can access on your BlackBerry device. For example, you can control whether an app can access your email,
contacts, pictures, or the location of your device. Keep in mind that some applications require specific permissions to work.
