About certificates
A certificate is a digital document that binds the identity and public key of a certificate subject. Each certificate has an associated private key. You can request a certificate from a Certificate Authority (CA). The CA signs the certificate to verify that it can be trusted. Other people use the public key of your certificate to encrypt email messages that they send to you and to verify the signature on email messages that you send to them. Your BlackBerry® device uses the private key associated with your certificate to sign email messages that you send and decrypt email messages sent to you. Private key information is never publicly available.
About certificate icons
The following icons indicate the status of certificates stored on your BlackBerry® device:

About digital signatures and encryption
You can digitally sign a message to help the recipient verify the authenticity and integrity of the message. When you digitally sign a message using your private key, the recipient uses your public key to verify that you sent the message and not someone who was pretending to be you, and that no one has changed the message before it arrived. You can encrypt a message to keep the message confidential. When you encrypt a message, your BlackBerry® device uses the recipient's public key to encrypt the message. Only the recipient's private key can decrypt the message and the recipient knows that no one else read the message.
User Guide Supplement
About encryption icons
When you open an encrypted message, a lock icon represents the encryption status. Your system administrator sets an IT Policy that determines whether the encryption algorithm that the message uses is considered to be strong or weak. · · Lock: The message is strongly encrypted. Lock with a question mark: The message is weakly encrypted.
Related topic About encryption icons (See page 20.)
About message classifications
If your BlackBerry® device is integrated with an account that uses BlackBerry Enterprise Server Version 4.1.2 or later and your system administrator turns on message classifications, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server applies a minimum set of security actions to each message that you compose, forward, or reply to, based on the classification that you assign to the message. Your system administrator configures the set of message classifications that you can use. If you receive a message that uses message classifications, your can view the abbreviated classification in the subject line of the message and the full description of the classification in the body of the message. The abbreviated classification and description also appear in messages in your Sent Items folder. Related topic Digitally sign or encrypt an email message (See page 22.)

X: The sender's certificate cannot be found on your device, is revoked, is not trusted, or cannot be verified, or that the sender's email address does not match the certificate subject email address in the certificate.
