AirWatch Provides Secure, Cross-Platform Support for Migrating BlackBerry Users
October 2013 by Marc Jacob
AirWatch® offers a secure migration path for organizations transitioning from BlackBerry to other mobile platforms. AirWatch’s cross-platform, enterprise-grade solution with government-grade security offers broad device choice. Organizations can easily manage all mobile devices, applications and content from a single console.
AirWatch’s layered approach to security allows administrators to track and manage all content, applications and devices – regardless of platform or device ownership – from one central console. AirWatch provides a multi-tenant environment that allows administrators to delegate role-based access and capabilities to both user groups and specific device groups.
AirWatch’s comprehensive EMM platform ensures a secure, multi-OS environment. By transitioning from BlackBerry to AirWatch, enterprises can:
o Deploy a layered approach to security across devices, email, apps, content and browsing
o Leverage government-grade security policies across operating systems, device type and ownership models
o Enable advanced security policies and user authentication for comprehensive data loss prevention
o Leverage the largest R&D team with the most OEM-API integrations of any EMM provider on the market
o Protect sensitive email data and attachments through the containerized AirWatch email client
o Containerize enterprise data and managed applications in AirWatch Workspace without device management
o Secure corporate content in AirWatch Secure Content Locker with FIPS-140-2 validated, AES-256 bit encryption
o Configure website whitelists, blacklists and kiosk mode using AirWatch Browser for secure Internet browsing
o Develop custom business apps with AirWatch SDK or wrap apps for additional security layers
