BlackBerry Repeats as Highest Scorer in All Six out of Six Use Cases in Gartner’s 2017 Critical Capabilities for High Security Mobility Management Report
For the second year in a row, BlackBerry has achieved the highest score in all six use cases of the Gartner Critical Capabilities for High-Security Mobility Management report (download here).
The report offers guidance to IT buyers, especially those in enterprises in regulated industries such as financial services, healthcare, energy and more, as well as government agencies, that all require strong security. And as cybersecurity becomes a board-level discussion for companies in every industry, the report should be considered required reading at any company where data and networks are valued.
Out of the 15 vendors evaluated, BlackBerry received the:
– Highest score in High-Security Government Grade
– Highest score in High-Security Commercial
– Highest score in Shared Data
– Highest score in Shared Devices
– Highest score in Non-Employee
– Highest score in Bring Your Own (BYO)
BlackBerry was also positioned a Leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for EMM for the second year in a row. And we also received the highest score in two use cases in Gartner’s 2017 Critical Capabilities for Enterprise Mobility Management for Regulated Industries and Unmanaged Device Support.
We believe it’s all validation that our overall strategy – building a safer world by securing, connecting, and mobilizing the Enterprise of Things – is working.
