BlackBerry Unveils Mobile Security Platform for Enterprises

Canadian mobile company BlackBerry on Friday launched a cloud-enabled mobile security platform for "Enterprise of Things" that will address entire businesses from endpoint to endpoint.

"Enterprise of Things" is defined as the network of intelligent connections and endpoints within the enterprise that enable products to move from sketch to scale.

It is a collection of devices, computers, sensors, trackers, equipment and other things that communicate with each other to enable smart product development, distribution, marketing and sales.

"Businesses must be able to confidentially and reliably transmit sensitive data between endpoints to keep people, information and goods safe," John Chen, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, BlackBerry, said in a statement.

The platform completes the integration of the BlackBerry's prior acquisitions of key technologies such as Good Technology, WatchDox, AtHoc and Encription, the company said.
