I don't think you can stop ppl from wiping the device. at least if you type your password incorrect for certain times (policy, default 10 times). it will wipe the device for security purpose.<br />
<br />
users can just type the password incorrectly to wipe it even you have the wipe option locked.

Sure, wasn't worried about people wiping the device, but what stops them wiping the device and then using for personal purposes, e.g. downloading apps from the Blackberry app store and so on

Hi<br />
<br />
We are running BES 5.0.x with BB7 devices. Considering a move to BES12 with BB10. <br />
<br />
We give new devices to our staff who then set up using their activation PIN.<br />
<br />
I'm wondering - what is there to stop someone wiping the device and then using it for themselves?

Forcing MDM on BlackBerry

The BlackBerry operating system is proprietary; releases beginning with BlackBerry 10 include support for applications written for the Android platform. As such, developers can use almost any programming language that can be used for other smartphones, including Java, Adobe Air, .NET and HTML5/JS (via an app packaging framework like PhoneGap) .
