Placing sports bets or playing casino and poker games on your BlackBerry is very safe and secure.  All data transferred between your BlackBerry and the sportsbook or casino is encrypted to a very high level.

Before you use any BlackBerry gambling app, you are always asked to re-enter your password.  This means that even if your BlackBerry was lost or stolen, your online betting account is safe.  For added security, many online betting companies allow you to remotely disable mobile betting on your phone if it gets stole.

Many people believe that placing a sports bet on your BlackBerry is more secure than placing a bet via your PC or Mac, because BlackBerry's very rarely get viruses.  Most security breaches are caused because peoples computers have become infected with a trojan or virus which never happens with smartphones.
