Integrating

CylancePERSONA

In SDK version 8.0 and later, the

BlackBerry Dynamics SDK

integrates

CylancePERSONA

(previously

BlackBerry Intelligent Security

) functionality. Previously,

CylancePERSONA

functionality was offered as part of the separate

BlackBerry Analytics

SDK that you could integrate with your

BlackBerry Dynamics

apps. In SDK version 8.0 and later,

BlackBerry Analytics

and

CylancePERSONA

functionality are now included in the

BlackBerry Dynamics SDK

.

CylancePERSONA

is a license-based cloud service that can dynamically adapt the security requirements and behavior of your users' devices and work apps to their real-world contexts. For example, if a

BlackBerry Dynamics

app reports a location that is not typical for the user,

CylancePERSONA

can dynamically limit the user’s access to work apps and device features, and enforce stricter authentication requirements. Likewise, if a

BlackBerry Dynamics

app reports a location that is typical for the user,

CylancePERSONA

can apply device behaviors that make it easier to access work apps and resources.

CylancePERSONA

adds a layer of adaptive security to your organization’s existing

UEM

domain without introducing an additional software footprint. It is a cloud service that collects data from existing

BlackBerry

solutions, including

BlackBerry Enterprise Identity

and

BlackBerry Dynamics

apps.

The

CylancePERSONA

services gather and process behavioral data, app events, and location data to calculate risk levels for each user in real-time and execute dynamic management actions that are configured by the

UEM

administrator.

To integrate

CylancePERSONA

with your custom

BlackBerry Dynamics

apps, your organization must purchase

CylancePERSONA

licenses, the

UEM

administrator must assign the entitlement to users or groups and configure the service, and you must follow the app integration instructions in this section. For more information about the

CylancePERSONA

requirements and configuration, see the BlackBerry Persona documentation.

For more information about the

CylancePERSONA

APIs that are integrated in the

BlackBerry Dynamics SDK

, see the BlackBerryAnalytics class (Android/iOS) in the API reference.
