BlackBerry (BB) & LeapXpert Team Up to Tackle Cyber Attacks
Read MoreHide Full Article
BlackBerry (BB - Free Report) has partnered with LeapXpert to enable the use of the BlackBerry Dynamics platform on popular messaging applications like WhatsApp, iMessage, WeChat, SMS, Telegram, Signal etc.
Organizations worldwide are using messaging applications to convey sensitive information to their customers as work from home has become a necessity. However, these applications are prone to hackers who look to exploit the loopholes in the security system to gain sensitive information.
The collaboration will provide customers with secure storage for important information and data leakage protection. It will also ensure that employee-customer interactions are end-to-end encrypted and captured.
Blackberry continues to invest in its cyber security portfolio to tap the growing demand for this market. The company had launched BlackBerry Gateway and Optics 3.0, which is part of its Extended Detection and Response strategy.
Per a research from Allied Market Research, the global cyber security market is projected to reach $478.68 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 9.5% from 2021 to 2030.
