Configuring PSK encryption

The IEEE 802.1X™ standard specifies PSK encryption as an access control method for enterprise Wi-Fi networks. You can use PSK encryption in small office and home environments where it is not feasible to configure server-based authentication.

To configure PSK encryption, you must distribute a passphrase to Wi-Fi enabled BlackBerry devices that matches the key or passphrase for the wireless access points. You must distribute the passphrase using the Wi-Fi profiles that you assign to user accounts. BlackBerry Business Cloud Services sends the passphrase when users activate the BlackBerry devices.
