Microsoft and BlackBerry Collaborate to provide a secure environment for mobile workforce

If employees want to edit Microsoft Office documents on the external network, this is inseparable from a secure application environment. To address this shortcoming, Microsoft announced that it has partnered with BlackBerry to launch the BlackBerry Enterprise BRIDGE solution. Enterprise users can seamlessly use native Microsoft applications in their BlackBerry Dynamics applications such as Blackberry Work.

The BlackBerry Enterprise BRIDGE solution protects applications by activating BlackBerry Dynamics and Microsoft Intune. Enables users to share files while ensuring data encryption and document integrity, and deploying regular anti-data breaches.

Carl Wiese, BlackBerry’s global sales president, said: “BlackBerry has always led the market with new and innovative ways to protect corporate data on mobile devices. We saw a need for a hyper-secure way for our joint customers to use native Office 365 mobile apps. BlackBerry Enterprise BRIDGE addresses this need and is a great example of how BlackBerry and Microsoft continue to securely enable workforces to be highly productive in today’s connected world. In an era when digital technology is driving rapid transformation, customers are looking for a trusted partner,” said Judson Althoff, executive vice president of Worldwide Commercial Business at Microsoft.”
