About compression
Compression is designed to reduce the size of your BlackBerry® device data while maintaining the integrity of that data. When
compression is turned on, your device compresses all device data, including messages, contacts, calendar entries, tasks, and
memos. You should keep compression turned on.
If both compression and encryption are turned on, your device compresses device data before encrypting it.
About file encryption
File encryption is designed to protect files that you store on your BlackBerry® device and on a media card that can be inserted
in your device. You can encrypt the files on your device and on your media card using an encryption key that your device
generates, your device password, or both.
