About BlackBerry Balance and your work
space
BlackBerry Balance technology helps address corporate security concerns without limiting personal use of your BlackBerry
device. If your administrator turns on BlackBerry Balance, the device data, apps, and network access are separated so
that you have a work space and a personal space. The separate spaces help you avoid activities such as accidentally

In your work space, you can access your work email, contacts, and calendar, create work documents, and browse to
corporate intranet sites. Your work space can include a separate version of BlackBerry World that contains the applications
