Novell GroupWise The BlackBerry Enterprise Server is designed to use a trusted application key to
open a connection to the Novell GroupWise server. To generate the trusted
application key, an administrator of Novell GroupWise runs the trusted
application key generator, specifies the location of the primary domain of Novell
GroupWise
, and specifies the application name that the BlackBerry Enterprise
Server
can use to connect to the Novell GroupWise server. The trusted
application key is a 64-byte ASCII string.
The BlackBerry Enterprise Server connects to a user’s mailbox in a highly secure
manner using the trusted application key. The Novell GroupWise server verifies
the trusted application key and permits the
BlackBerry Enterprise Server to
open a connection to the Novell GroupWise database for the user.
How the BlackBerry Enterprise Server
components and the BlackBerry MVS
protect communication
BlackBerry Enterprise Server components and the BlackBerry Mobile Voice System use the BlackBerry inter-process
protocol to help protect the data that the components send to each other. The BlackBerry inter-process protocol uses a
communication password to generate a session key that encrypts the data that the components send to each other. The
BlackBerry Collaboration Service, BlackBerry MDS Connection Service, BlackBerry Policy Service, BlackBerry
Synchronization Service, and BlackBerry MVS share a communication password. The BlackBerry Messaging Agent and
BlackBerry Dispatcher share a different communication password. The communication passwords are designed to prevent
a potentially malicious user from viewing data that the BlackBerry Enterprise Server components and the BlackBerry MVS
send to each other.
When a BlackBerry Enterprise Server component or the BlackBerry MVS opens a connection to the BlackBerry Dispatcher,
the BlackBerry inter-process protocol is designed to use SPEKE to generate the session key. The key generation process
uses the communication password of the
BlackBerry Enterprise Server component or BlackBerry MVS and generates an
AES-256 encryption key, which is the session key. The BlackBerry Enterprise Server components and BlackBerry MVS use
the session key to encrypt the data that the BlackBerry Enterprise Server components and BlackBerry MVS sends to other
BlackBerry Enterprise Server components that share the same communication password.
