The BlackBerry Smart Card Reader for BlackBerry devices with the Secure Multi-Purpose Internet Mail Extension (S/MIME) Support Package is an accessory that, when used in proximity to certain Bluetooth-enabled BlackBerry devices, integrates smart card use with the BlackBerry Enterprise Solution. The BlackBerry Smart Card Reader is designed to communicate wirelessly with Bluetooth version 1.1 (or later)-enabled BlackBerry devices using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) 256 encryption method on the transport layer, creating a reliable two-factor authenticated environment for granting access to BlackBerry and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) applications without the use of passwords. Through an Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key exchange, the BlackBerry Smart Card Reader is designed to enable wireless digital signing and encryption of wireless email messages.
