Blackberry Application Signing, Is it required?

Question

I have created a simple native application using Blackberry API's.

Application contains only a Login Form and Alert. The applicaiton runs on simulator but while running on the device (9300 BB OS 6.0) it gives error "applicaiton attempts" to access secure API.

Is simple form under "Secure" API's.
