    Smart cards About using a smart card with your smartphone
    Smart cards store certificates and private keys. You can use a smart card reader to import certificates from a smart card to the
    key store on your BlackBerry® smartphone, but you can't import private keys. As a result, private key operations such as signing
    and decryption use the smart card, and public key operations such as verification and encryption use the public certificates on
    your smartphone.
    If you use a smart card certificate to authenticate with your smartphone, after you connect your smart card reader to your smartphone, your smartphone requests authentication from the smart card each time that you unlock your smartphone.
    You can install multiple smart card drivers on your smartphone, including drivers for microSD smart cards, but you can only
    authenticate to one smart card at a time. If you are authenticating using a microSD smart card and you want to transfer media files between your microSD smart card and your computer in mass storage mode, you must temporarily turn off two-factor
    authentication or select a different authentication option.
    If the S/MIME Support Package for BlackBerry® smartphones is installed on your smartphone, you can use smart card
    certificates to send S/MIME-protected messages.
    Turn on two-factor authentication
    To perform this task, you must set a password for your BlackBerry® smartphone and have the smart card password that you received with your smart card.
    1. On the Home screen or in a folder, click the  Options icon.
    2. Click  Security > Password .
    • To use a smart card and your smartphone password to unlock your smartphone, set the  Authentication Type field to

    About smart password entry
    If you use advanced authentication and your BlackBerry® smartphone password or smart card password is numeric, you might
    be able to use smart password entry in some password fields. When smart password entry is turned on, your smartphone is
    designed to remember the format of a password that you type in a password field. When you type the password again, your smartphone applies a smart password filter to the password field. If the password is numeric, a 123 indicator appears beside
    the password field and you do not have to press the Alt key to type numbers. If the password is alphanumeric, an ABC indicator
    appears beside the password field.
    To use smart password entry, advanced authentication must be turned on and the correct smart card driver and smart card reader must be installed on your smartphone.
    Turn off smart password entry To perform this task, you must be using a smart card and a password to unlock your BlackBerry® smartphone.You can turn off smart password entry to reduce the chance that someone might guess your smartphone password or smart card password based on the smart password filter that your smartphone applies to password fields.
