Key Store Password Maximum Timeout IT policy rule

Description

This rule specifies the maximum number of minutes that can elapse before the timeout period expires for the cached key store password and a BlackBerry device prompts a BlackBerry device user to type the password. The device key store is the database that stores the user's private keys. The key store uses a password to protect the user's private keys. By default, the device caches the key store password to minimize the number of key store password prompts. If you change this rule to 0, the device cannot cache the key store password and cannot reduce the number of password prompts.
