Password protect your BB?
 
I was curious whether the majority of folks use a password with their Torch?

It's annoying but I have started using a PW because of the amount of personal data I've accumulated on my Torch.

I don't use a Torch, but I, personally, would never recommend using a BlackBerry (or any device with personal info on it) without a password. The minor inconvenience of entering a password is well worth the piece of mind of knowing your personal data is secure IMO.

It is our corporate policy (enforced) to have a password.
Mandatory.

@NJ, here too. My comment above was directed to users that are not on a BES.

BES, BIS, other... you'd be silly to not have a password on it.

BES admin here too, double security, we insist if they must put personal data on the device that they should also use the passwoor keeper app.

That password can not be reset via BES and if the device is lost or stolen we can still wipe it remotely including the data in the password keeper.

I love GOD mode! ;-)

I have a stronger password on my personal device then I do on my work device.

I use PaternLock, as well as the stock password settings for extra security, having my credit card, bank account, and other personal/business information stored on my Torch.

My kids have passwords on theirs. Personal or business doesn't matter.
