REM extension files are a type of BlackBerry encrypted file.

Originally BlackBerry was a line of smartphones, tablets, and services originally designed and marketed by Canadian company BlackBerry Limited, formerly known as Research In Motion Limited.

Today, the cellular equipment market has been left to third-party developers, who market to the global, Indonesian, and Indian markets, through TCL Communication, BB Merah Putih, and Optiemus, respectively, continually using the BlackBerry brand.

BlackBerry, today, is dedicated to the cloud-based information security market, telemetry, real-time operating systems, Internet of Things and vehicle operational monitoring.

Files with the REM extension are encrypted using a BlackBerry device and can also be decrypted with it.

Once decrypted, the files can be transferred to a computer and opened in the normal way.
