BlackBerry Limited has announced two major new innovations in Unified Endpoint Management (UEM): BlackBerry UEM at the edge and BlackBerry UEM for the Internet of Things (IoT).
BlackBerry UEM software is used for managing, monitoring, and securing an organization’s end-user devices. BlackBerry UEM at the edge enhances enterprise productivity and employee experience by bringing workloads close to the end user and their device, resulting in ultra-low latency connectivity. It also integrates with AWS Local Zones and Availability Zones to securely place compute, storage, and other services where data is being generated and consumed. BlackBerry UEM at the edge is compatible with both on-premises and cloud-based BlackBerry UEM.
BlackBerry UEM for the IoT expands unified endpoint management to IoT devices, allowing organizations to realize the benefits of the IoT while reducing unknown risks. It integrates BlackBerry UEM with AWS IoT Greengrass, providing endpoint visibility and management for IoT devices in various industries.
Neelam Sandhu, Chief Elite Customer Success Officer at BlackBerry, stated that BlackBerry is revolutionizing the market once again by leapfrogging the industry in endpoint management innovation and paving the way for convergence.
Dr. Sarah Cooper, General Manager for Industry Products at AWS, expressed delight in collaborating with BlackBerry on UEM at the edge and IoT solutions, delivering a unified and innovative endpoint management solution for the connected world.
The IoT is a foundational pillar of digital transformation, extending the reach of information technology. Edge computing addresses the demand for real-time data processing and analysis, while increased endpoint visibility provides situational awareness and security benefits.
