Category Score	Score: 2 / 3

3. User Authentication

Criterion	Value	Proof	Comment
Account management	Basic	—	Relies on standard Google Account for core services; BlackBerry Account for value-added services
Authentication	Secure	—	Enhanced beyond stock Android with DTEK monitoring and hardware-backed keystore for stronger authentication.
Brute-force protection	Absent	—
Event logging	Partial logging	—	BlackBerry apps (e.g., DTEK, Hub) log specific security/usage events, but system-level auth event logging is incomplete.
Passwords	Require change after setup	—	Follows standard Android password policies; may prompt initial change but lacks enforced complexity
Category Score	Score: 2 / 3
