Protecting the data that the

BlackBerry Enterprise Server

stores in your organization's

environment

Where the BlackBerry Enterprise Server

stores messages and user data in the

messaging environment

The BlackBerry Enterprise Server stores the messages and user data for a BlackBerry device in the messaging

environment so that the BlackBerry Enterprise Server can maintain a connection between a user’s email account and the

device. To avoid compromising the user data that is stored in the messaging environment, you must protect the storage

location in the messaging environment.

Messaging environment Storage location

IBM Domino The following Domino databases store data for the BlackBerry Enterprise Server:

• The BlackBerry state database stores an entry that opens a connection

between each original email message in a user’s IBM Notes Inbox and the

same email message on the user’s device. Each user account has a uniquely

named

BlackBerry state database.

• The BlackBerry profiles database stores configuration information for each

user account, including the identification information for the device and the

device transport key. The

BlackBerry profiles database stores a link to a

BlackBerry state database and stores other information that the BlackBerry

Enterprise Server uses to manage how email messages are sent to and from

the device.
