Zoom for BlackBerry: BlackBerry integrates Zoom into Dynamics

BlackBerry has teamed up with Zoom to integrate Zoom into Dynamics. Titled “Zoom for BlackBerry”, the video conferencing platform has been integrated with BlackBerry’s Dynamics secure mobility platform.

Zoom for BlackBerry is the BlackBerry Dynamics-enabled version of Zoom. By using Zoom for BlackBerry Dynamics across the organization, enterprises benefit from increased protection from corporate data leakage and cyber threats.

This protection is due to the additional security inherent in the use of a container, and the extra control provided when all meeting participants use the BlackBerry Dynamics version of Zoom.

The use of BlackBerry Dynamics enables:

Embedded Mobile Threat Defense, which provides built-in protection from phishing URLs and malware infected shared files, plus screenshot compliance policies (iOS) and prevention (Android).

Data Leakage Protection against meeting participants copying from Zoom for BlackBerry and pasting into a personal app. (In ordinary Zoom usage, meeting participants are permitted to take screenshots and copy-paste from the app).

Files shared in Chat remain secured in the Dynamics file system – Zoom for BlackBerry prevents the download and storage of (potentially confidential) content sent through Zoom outside of the BlackBerry Dynamics container. When saved, the content (for example, an attachment) is saved inside the container, where BlackBerry secures it using the highest level of encryption. This means that malware or a threat actor who gains unauthorized access to the employee’s device cannot access that content.

IT can remotely wipe the application – and its data if needed.

The password is at the app level, not the device level (i.e., you can have your device completely unlocked but still only allow access to the work app with an enterprise password).

For busy executives at any company, confidential internal meetings need to be conducted in the safest and most secure fashion. If CISOs and security teams want to make sure that their employee meetings are as secure as possible, they can use Zoom for BlackBerry.
