Security is paramount to BlackBerry and it’s something that it’s reputation hangs on.
Research in Motion (RIM) not only takes security into account at the highest level but also at the very lowest level.
Deep in the heart of the BlackBerry 10 OS is a list of 106 passwords that you will not be able to use.
We will probably see this list being added to over time.
It’s not a major feature but it is nice to see that even the smallest details are being taken care of for BlackBerry 10.
‘Forbidden password list’ this is to be kept in sync with the PasswordService.properties file from the BB IdM server
