BlackBerry 10 Gets NATO Security Clearance
A rare bit of good news for BlackBerry amid all the bad: The company’s new next-generation mobile platform has won NATO security clearance. BlackBerry said Tuesday that its BlackBerry 10 smartphones and BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 have been approved for “Restricted” NATO communications. Restricted is NATO’s fourth and lowest security category, but by winning it, BlackBerry has cleared its devices for use by NATO employees in all 28 member states.
