    							Security
    About tablet passwords
    You can set different passwords to help protect the data and information on your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet.
    You are required to enter your BlackBerry ID login information the first time you turn on your tablet, and again if you clear all 
    the data on your tablet. You also use your BlackBerry ID as authentication when you purchase apps from BlackBerry App 
    World, and when you sign into the Video Chat application.
    Setting a password for your tablet is optional, and it allows you to automatically lock your tablet after the set amount of time 
    has passed. When your tablet automatically locks it goes into standby mode. This type of password security ensures that if your 
    tablet is lost or stolen, the information on it remains secure. If an incorrect password is entered ten times, the tablet data is  automatically deleted. For more information about setting a tablet password, see the help topic about setting a password.
    Storage and Sharing Password protection is optional, and allows you to set a password to use when sharing files. The file 
    sharing password prevents someone from connecting to your tablet over a wireless network, and accessing files on the 
    computer that the tablet is mapped to. If you intend to share files over a Wi-Fi network, it is recommended that you use a 
    password to protect the data on your tablet. For more information about storage and sharing password protection, see the  help topics about File Sharing.
    BlackBerry Balance Perimeter passwords allow you to secure areas of your tablet as work-only, or personal-only.
    Set or change a password
    To prevent someone from accessing the information on your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet without your permission, set a 
    password. After you set the password, you'll need to enter it to unlock your tablet.
    Note: This password is different from yourBlackBerry ID password.
    1.On the home screen, swipe down from the top frame.
    2.Tap Security > Password.
    •To set a password, set the Enable Password switch to On.
