(San
Francisco, CA) In the Country
of Canada, Blackberry, Ltd., is a native multinational corporation. Fascinatingly, this business was once named,
Research in Motion (R.I.M.). Under this
name, R.I.M. was the developer of the Blackberry brand of smart
telephones. The latter, was once a very
popular brand, amongst, the business circles of the U.S.A. In the year 2013, Blackberry, Ltd.
transitioned into being an enterprise level software and services,
business. Today; it is known to the
general public as a specialist of enterprise level software, and, the internet
of things (IoT). Recently, Blackberry,
Ltd. announced that, it has updated the Blackberry Spark Platform. Specifically, the aforementioned business
revealed that, the Blackberry Spark Platform now comes with the following. An artificial intelligence engine, a machine
learning capability, automation, cyber threat prevention, cyber threat
remediation and visibility are now standard; Blackberry Spark Platform
features. In other words, the updated
Blackberry Spark Platform, delivers a zero trust architecture.
The zero trust architecture, which
is the essence of the updated Blackberry Spark Platform, is meant to do the
following. A unified endpoint security,
along with, a unified endpoint management is what the zero trust architecture
does. However and returning to,
Blackberry, Ltd., the aforementioned business was transitioned by John S.
Chen. In fact, in November of the year
2013, Mr. Chen took over as the Chief Executive Officer. The strategy was to subcontract out manufacturing,
and subsequently, focus on software technology solutions. For the former, John S. Chen developed
licensing partnerships with, device manufacturers. For the latter, Mr. Chen unified Blackberry’s
software portfolio. This idea, as it
results, proved to be genius. In fact,
Blackberry’s software portfolio is used worldwide by other software businesses,
automobile manufacturers and government agencies. Blackberry Cylance, is an artificial
intelligence cyber security technology solution. Additionally, it is a perfect example of the
previously stated. Currently; and
according to the way it is reported, Blackberry, Ltd. is securing a connected
future that, can be trusted.
Returning to, the updated Blackberry
Spark Platform, the aforementioned delivers two things. The two things are; a zero trust security
technology solution, and, a simplified administration. In reference to; zero trust security, the
aforementioned is best characterized, as a zero trust environment. The latter; is the ability to understand
risks, define risks, make contextual decisions and dynamically apply a set of
policy controls. Additionally,
everything that is the aforementioned is based, on large amounts of data. Furthermore, the zero trust environment
covers the following; users, devices, networks, apps and data. In order to accomplish the aforementioned,
the updated Blackberry Spark Platform is centered on six pillars. Endpoint protection platform (E.P.P.),
endpoint detection and response (E.D.R.), mobile threat defense (M.T.D.),
continuous authentication, data loss prevention (D.L.P.) and secure web gateway
are the six pillars. As part of the
updated Blackberry Spark Platform; these six pillars work together and
seamlessly to share data for reports, the calculation of risks across domains
and the enabling of policy controls. In
reference to, simplified administration, the aforementioned is best characterized
in the following way. The
characterization is one agent across all endpoints, and, one console for
administrators. Additionally; all threat
data from all endpoints is combined into one crowd sourced repository, and,
managed in one internet cloud environment.
In other words, the updated Blackberry Spark Platform, is highlighted by
four features. The first feature is one
agent. The latter, is comprehensive
endpoint support that, only uses one agent.
This one agent supports desktop, mobile and IoT devices. The second feature is one console. The latter, is visibility for the
business. The single console provides
visibility of endpoints, users, data and networks. The third feature is one crowd. The latter; uses artificial intelligence and
machine learning, to provide, threat detection and modeling. The idea is to continuously learn the
environment. The fourth feature is one
internet cloud. The latter, is instant
access to a global ecosystem.
To end, Blackberry, Ltd. (NYSE: BB and TSX:
BB) did release a press statement.
Billy Ho is the Executive Vice President of Enterprise Products at
Blackberry, Ltd. Through a press
statement, Mr. Ho said the following.
“BlackBerry Spark platform is built to enable zero trust security,
focused on earning trust across any endpoint and continuously validating that
trust at every event or transaction. By
validating user actions, the BlackBerry Spark platform continuously
authenticates users to deliver a zero touch experience that improves security
with no user interruption. In this way,
dynamic trust is maintained across all devices, networks, data, users, and
apps.” Billy Ho also said. “Seeing the consolidation of MTD offerings
with EDR and EPP tools. This will
continue, combining to form a single solution during the next three to five
years. Gartner has dubbed this combined
infrastructure stack ‘unified endpoint security.’ Organizations should invest with this
consolidation in mind.” As previously
stated, Blackberry, Ltd. recently announced that, it has updated the Blackberry
Spark Platform. Specifically, the
aforementioned business revealed that, the Blackberry Spark Platform now comes
with the following. An artificial intelligence
engine, a machine learning capability, automation, cyber threat prevention,
cyber threat remediation and visibility are now standard; Blackberry Spark
Platform features. In other words, the
updated Blackberry Spark Platform, delivers a zero trust architecture. Lastly; a unified endpoint security, along
with, a unified endpoint management is what the zero trust architecture does.
