Advanced security features with
CylancePROTECT Mobile

The
BlackBerry Dynamics SDK
 integrates the
CylancePROTECT
 library to support
CylancePROTECT Mobile
 for
UEM
.
CylancePROTECT
 is a licensed service that offers a suite of features that enhances
UEM
’s ability to detect, prevent, and resolve security threats without disrupting the productivity of your workforce.
CylancePROTECT
 is configured and managed by the
UEM
 administrator. No additional development or integration effort is required if your organization wants to leverage the
CylancePROTECT
 features for custom
BlackBerry Dynamics
 apps.
CylancePROTECT
 uses a combination of advanced technologies, including:
  • The cloud-based
    CylanceINFINITY
     service that uses sophisticated AI and machine learning to identify malware and unsafe URL
  • 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.
CylancePROTECT
 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 about
CylancePROTECT
, see the CylancePROTECT Mobile for UEM 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).
