BlackBerry 7 - the most secure mobile platform for enterprises

BlackBerry 7 - the most secure mobile platform for enterprises

We know that RIM has always prided themselves in having a very secure platform for their enterprise customers, and have worked hard to maintain that through the years. Recently the folks at Trend Micro set out to test the current mobile OS platforms, and see how they compare for enterprise solutions. As expected, RIM's BlackBerry 7 took the cake for several different reasons. In the current Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) environment that many companies have began allowing, each of them is a risk to the business in some way shape or form, but BlackBerry devices still remain the most secure. 
What is interesting in these results is that, whilst some mobile platforms have evolved very noticeably along enterprise lines, there is still a strong ‘consumer marketing' legacy in some quarters and this is negating some of the progress made on the enterprise front. Indeed, some of the attributes we have examined in the report are still firmly ‘enterprise-unready'.”
We have seen the US Government continue their support of BlackBerry, and other large companies are doing the same, and the benefits are obvious. People want their information to be secure, and BlackBerry devices offer that and plenty more.

BlackBerry 7 smartphones: a final overview

BlackBerry 7 smartphones: a final overview

To be honest, I was kind of nervous about August. It was the month when many of the new BlackBerry 7 smartphones would hit carriers. It was an exciting time, for sure. The spec sheets that leaked earlier in the year made the devices look promising — far more promising than any previous line of BlackBerry models. Yet at the same time I couldn’t rid my mouth of the bad taste the previous line left. Whether it was constant problems with the 9650, the unrealized potential of the Storm 9800, or the complete lack of marketing power behind the Pearl 3G, it was hard to approach these devices with anything more than guarded optimism. To be further honest, I let the reviewunits sit in their FedEx boxes for a couple of days, for fear that I’d have to write some harsh words. I just didn’t want that.
But then I actually tried the devices, and I liked them.
In many ways the devices are similar. That is, they have the same processor, same operating system, and the same (or similar) amount of on-board memory. That made it somewhat tough to make the reviews unique. Yet each model lent something to the whole. Today I’m going to sum up my final thoughts on the newest line of BlackBerry models.
The hardware makes the difference
The original BlackBerry Torch provided a valuable lesson for RIM. It had potential, and I even enjoyed my short time with it. Yet I wouldn’t have purchased it as my personal BlackBerry. Why? Because despite all the new features of BlackBerry 6, the device seemingly could not handle them. There just wasn’t enough power behind it. As I emphasized greatly in every review, the processor was the single biggest improvement of any model.
It’s a bit frustrating, of course, because Android manufacturers were pumping out handsets with 1GHz processors in 2010. If RIM had done that, and hadn’t just gone with business-as-usual move, they might have avoided a lot of issues that they face now.
Software is no big deal
When it comes to BlackBerry, the standard complaint centers on the software. The BlackBerry OS is ancient. There aren’t enough killer apps. And so on. RIM tried to change that conversation with BlackBerry OS 6, and to an extent they did. That is, OS 6 was a far more powerful mobile operating system than anything they had previously released. But, again, the issue was that their phones weren’t powerful enough to handle it.
At this point I’m not sure what the big deal is. Sure, if you’re looking for the greatest in customization you might prefer Android. But BlackBerry 6, and now 7, offers a straight forward UI that works as well as you might imagine on a touchscreen. Again, maybe cutting edge consumers won’t love it, but business users have every reason to use and like it. It ain’t the best, but it’s not unserviceable, either.
The feel is right
The last, and perhaps most noticeable, feature of the BlackBerry 7 smartphones is that they just feel right. Whether it’s the way the Torch 9850 feels in my hand, or the way the 9930′s keyboard blows away the competition, the devices just feel right. The exception, I guess, is the Torch 9810. But on the whole these just feel like solid devices that should be able to handle the rough and tumble of my pocket and frequent drops.
Usable, practical
My overall impression of the BlackBerry 7 smartphones is that they are perfectly usable, practical phones for a business setting. They’re not going to set the world afire with apps. There won’t be any hacking the devices to gain extra features, nor will there be a cult of RIM to go along with them. But they run properly, use adequate software, and still take advantage of RIM’s second-to-none messaging system. It’s hard to ask for more from the BlackBerry line of smartphones. RIM has certainly reached an apex with this current breed.
Thankfully, they can still go up. This line not only gave them a line of business phones that can handle anything thrown at them, but they’ve also inspired confidence in the next line of BlackBerry phones. I’m definitely psyched to get my hands on the Colt. Hopefully that happens not too long after New Year 2012.

Wipe your BlackBerry’s data

Wipe your BlackBerry’s data


By default, the Emails, Contacts, etc. box is checked. That will ensure that your personal 
information gets wiped from the device. When selling your device, this is pretty important. On the other hand, if you just want to clear the clutter from your device you might want to uncheck this box. That way you can keep your personal information in tact. If that doesn’t work, you can always go back and wipe that information later.



 


Sometimes it just needs to be done. Perhaps your BlackBerry has been running extra sluggishly and you don’t know the cause. Maybe something’s wonky and every possible solution hasn’t worked. Or maybe you’re just getting rid of your BlackBerry and want to wipe it clean of your personal information. Whatever the reason, you never know when you’ll run into a situation where you want to wipe your device. Thankfully, RIM has made this super simple in BlackBerry 7.
To perform your data wipe, go to Options – Security – Security Wipe.
Alternatively, you can wipe your personal information without wiping applications. There’s a separate check box for user-installed applications. There’s also a check box for your media card. That can be useful in some instances, but since media cards are reusable, and since some of that data can be read by other devices, I’m presuming most people will want to keep them in tact. But, again, you can use the Security Wipe feature to only knock out the data on your SD card if you so choose.
Once you’ve chosen which items you’d like to wipe, scroll to the bottom and typeblackberry in the box. Then click Wipe Data and it’s all gone. It’s as simple as that.
