    PGP protected messages
    PGP protected message basics About signing and encrypting messages
    You can digitally sign or encrypt messages to add another level of security to email messages and PIN messages that you send from your
    BlackBerry® device. Digital signatures are designed to help recipients verify the authenticity and integrity of messages that you send. When
    you digitally sign a message using your private key, recipients use your public key to verify that the message is from you and that the message
    has not been changed.
    Encryption is designed to keep messages confidential. When you encrypt a message, your device uses the recipient’s public key to encrypt the
    message. Recipients use their private key to decrypt the message.
    To send an encrypted PIN message, you must have a PIN and an email address for the contact in your contact list. Your device uses the email
    address in your contact list to locate a PGP® key or certificate for the contact.
    Sign or encrypt a message
    You can sign or encrypt email messages and PIN messages.
    1. When composing a message, change the  Encoding field.
    2. If necessary, change the  Classification field.
    Encrypt a PGP protected message with a pass phrase
    By default, your BlackBerry® device uses your PGP® key to encrypt messages.
    1. When composing a message, change the  Encoding field to one that uses encryption.
    2. Press the  Menu key.
    3. Click  Options.
    4. Change the  Use Conventional Encryption  field to Yes.
    5. Press the  Menu key.

    About message classifications
    If your BlackBerry® device is associated with an email account that uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports this feature and your
    administrator turns on message classifications, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server applies a minimum set of security actions to each message
    that you compose, forward, or reply to, based on the classification that you assign to the message. Your administrator specifies the message
    classifications that you can use.
    If you receive a message that uses message classifications, you can view the abbreviation for the classification in the subject line of the message
    and the full description for the classification in the body of the message. You can also view the abbreviation and full description for the
    classification for a sent message in the sent items folder.
    Change the default message classification
    To perform this task, your email account must use a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports this feature and your administrator must turn
    on message classifications.
    Your BlackBerry device is designed to use the default message classification when you send a message to a contact that you have not sent a
    message to or received a message from previously. If you have sent a message to or received a message from the contact previously, your device
