Enable and configure safe browsing for 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 apps

By default, safe browsing protection is enabled for 
BlackBerry Desktop
BlackBerry Access
BlackBerry Work
BlackBerry Tasks
, and 
BlackBerry Connect
. When safe browsing is enabled for 
BlackBerry Access
, it is also enabled for 
BlackBerry Desktop
. You must assign a 
BlackBerry Protect
 profile to user accounts to enable the feature on users’ devices.
  • Check the software requirements to verify that the required versions of 
    BlackBerry Dynamics
     apps are installed on users' devices.
  • To extend safe browsing to other 
    BlackBerry Dynamics
     apps, in 
    Settings > BlackBerry Protect > Safe browsing
    , on the 
    Protected BlackBerry Dynamics apps
     tab, edit the list to add additional apps.
  1. In the management console, on the menu bar, click 
    Policies and profiles > Protection > BlackBerry Protect
    .
  2. Create a new 
    BlackBerry Protect
     profile or select and edit an existing 
    BlackBerry Protect
     profile.
  3. Select the platform that you want to configure safe browsing for. 
  4. Verify that the 
    Check for unsafe web resources within the BlackBerry Dynamics apps
     check box is selected.
  5. In the 
    Action for unsafe web resources
     drop-down list, choose one of the following:
    • To take no action and log information, click 
      Monitor and log
      .
    • To block access to unsafe URLs, click 
      Block
      .
  6. In the 
    Scanning option
     drop-down list, choose one of the following:
    • If you want 
      BlackBerry Dynamics
       apps to send URLs to 
      CylanceINFINITY
       to determine if they are safe, click 
      Cloud scanning
      .
    • If you want to use only the local machine learning models of the 
      BlackBerry Protect
       library to identify unsafe URLs, click 
      On device scanning
      .
    • If you want to disable URL scanning, click 
      No scanning
      .
    The approved and blocked domains that you configure are enforced regardless of the option that you choose.
  7. If you selected cloud or on-device scanning, and you want to give the user a warning and the option to proceed when a URL has been identified as unsafe, select the 
    Allow users to override blocked resources and enable access to the requested domain
     check box.
    Note that users cannot choose to proceed to a URL in a blocked domain. This bypass feature does not apply to sub-resource URLs.
  8. If necessary, repeat steps 3 to 7 to configure safe browsing for the other platforms.
