The application is designed to facilitate secure access to essential work tools such as email, calendars, and contact lists. This is critical in ensuring that employees can maintain productivity while adhering to company security protocols. Alongside providing access to these tools, the app automates the configuration of important work-related policies, Wi-Fi connections, and VPN settings, simplifying the user experience while ensuring compliance with the organization's standards for data security.
Installation of approved mobile applications is streamlined through this application, allowing users to easily set up the tools mandated by their organization. The app supports a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policy, permitting employees to utilize their personal devices for business purposes while still maintaining a clear separation between personal and professional data. This dual usage alleviates the need for companies to provide separate devices, thereby optimizing operational costs and enhancing convenience for users.
For Android devices managed by BlackBerry Unified Endpoint Manager (UEM), this application harnesses advanced features such as Android for Work and Samsung Knox. These capabilities bolster security and enterprise mobility management, providing organizations with robust tools to manage their assets securely. Further enhancing mobile productivity, the app incorporates BlackBerry Dynamics, enabling secure document editing and sharing, as well as intranet browsing, ensuring that work processes remain efficient and protected.
It's important to note that users must have their organization utilize BlackBerry UEM or earlier versions like BES12 or BES10 to activate this client. Individuals should consult with their company’s mobility experts prior to downloading the app to confirm compatibility and ensure that an account has been established for them within the corresponding EMM framework. The application's reliance on BlackBerry's ecosystem signifies its commitment to security, as users will experience end-to-end secure connectivity when utilizing supported enterprise applications within the managed environment.
