Advanced security features with
BlackBerry Protect Mobile

The
BlackBerry Dynamics SDK
integrates the
BlackBerry Protect Mobile
library to support
BlackBerry Protect Mobile
for
UEM
.
BlackBerry Protect Mobile
enables
UEM
to detect, prevent, and resolve security threats without disrupting the productivity of your workforce.
BlackBerry Protect Mobile
is configured and managed by the
UEM
administrator. No additional development or integration effort is required if your organization wants to leverage
BlackBerry Protect Mobile
features for custom
BlackBerry Dynamics
apps.
BlackBerry Protect Mobile
uses a combination of advanced technologies, including:
  • The
    BlackBerry cloud services
    that use sophisticated AI and machine learning to identify malware and unsafe URLs.
  • The
    UEM
    server that provides a complete device management and compliance infrastructure for your organization.
  • BlackBerry
    apps that monitor and enforce security standards at the device and user level.
The seamless integration of these technologies establishes a secure ecosystem where data is protected and malicious activities are identified at all endpoints and eliminated proactively.
BlackBerry Protect Mobile
includes the following features:
  • Malware detection for
    Android
    apps (including
    BlackBerry Dynamics
    apps) that are uploaded to
    UEM
    for internal deployment
  • Malware detection on
    Android
    devices
  • Sideloaded app detection on
    iOS
    and
    Android
    devices
  • Safe browsing with
    BlackBerry Dynamics
    apps
  • Insecure network detection on
    iOS
    and
    Android
    devices.
  • Insecure
    Wi-Fi
    access point detection on
    iOS
    and
    Android
    devices.
  • Integrity checking for
    BlackBerry Dynamics
    apps on
    iOS
    devices using the
    Apple
    DeviceCheck framework
  • Hardware certificate attestation for
    BlackBerry Dynamics
    apps on
    Android
    devices
For more information, see the BlackBerry Protect Mobile documentation.
If you want to use the insecure
Wi-Fi
detection feature for a
BlackBerry Dynamics
app on
iOS
devices, you must add the Access Wi-Fi Information Entitlement to the app configuration (plist), and the app must prompt the user to grant location permissions that are required for the insecure
Wi-Fi
feature to work. The
BlackBerry Dynamics SDK
cannot automatically prompt the user or grant location permissions for the device. The feature will not work if the user does not grant location permissions (
UEM
will report a compliance issue).
