6 4 PILLARS OF APP DEVELOPMENT Connectivity Application Management Standards Notifications / Push

7 1 CONNECTIVITY BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 solves the Mobile VPN issue Traditional VPN technology was not designed for Mobile Secure Work Space for ios and Android allows these devices to leverage the same secure VPN as BlackBerry Smartphones BlackBerry has also created a unique and secure way to route MDM traffic through its infrastructure, eliminating the need to use a separate VPN Gartner, MDM Magic Quadrant, 2013

8 APPLICATION CONNECTIVITY Open Client Development Tools BlackBerry Infrastructure Backend Connectivity And Services Backend Systems Web servers MDM BES10 Secure connectivity Intranet Application servers

9 2 MANAGEMENT Enterprise App Store Internal vs. Cloud Application Access Pushed and Mandatory Apps Lifecycle Management Enterprise Grade Control As a result of having fallen into app development as a business necessity, [enterprises] are typically lacking in basic app dev lifecycle skills To create some order out of this potential mobile app chaos, a systematic, fulllifecycle approach is needed. Andrew Borg Aberdeen Group

12 CROSS-PLATFORM CAPABLE Example of a behind the firewall cross-platform emergency contact list. BlackBerry Q10 BlackBerry Z10 Samsung Galaxy S4 iphone & ipad

13 HOW BES10 CAN HELP BES10 provides a solution for these 4 pillars Solves Mobile VPN issue Cross-Platform Application Management Develop with the tools of your choice Push to BlackBerry devices

14 SECURE WORK SPACE

15 Traditional Application Architecture App System APIs Create application Interact with API s and available OS entry points Manage all security for data at rest OS Unwrapped App

16 Wrapped Application Architecture App Wrapping App License/lock/policy validation, basic accounting Secure file I/O, copy & paste, network accounting BlackBerry Secure Connectivity Secure wrapping manages interaction with system APIs Compliance Authentication Application level controls Network System APIs OS System APIs OS Data encryption using AES 256 for data atrest Unwrapped App Wrapped App

17 1. Development Team Build and Sign Application 2. Pass to BlackBerry Enterprise Service Administrator 3. Administrator Uploads the Application to BES for Wrapping 4. Wrapped Application is Downloaded 5. Wrapped Application Passed Back to Development Team Why? The Application has been modified in the process and thus requires re-signing 6. Development Team re-sign the application 7. Pass to BlackBerry Enterprise Service Administrator 8. Application Definition Created for Application 9. Added to a Software Configuration
