An IT policy exists that allows the administrator to disable the BlackBerry Pearl camera. Like all BlackBerry Enterprise Server IT policies, this can be applied at an individual level, a group level or across the entire BlackBerry smartphone deployment.
Expandable Memory
Administrators can also set IT policies to disable the smartphone's expandable memory capability and/or its ability to function as a USB mass storage device.
Further, an IT policy allows administrators to control data encryption on the expandable memory card: they can disable encryption entirely or encrypt the content to the user password, the device key or both the user password and the device key.
