A Peek at Windows Phone 7 Security

Curious about the new security features of Windows Phone 7? Tons of them are detailed in the video below, so you can see for yourself what Microsoft has included so far, and a few things that may be missing. Items of note are the lack of an encrypted file system. However, there are some built-in encryption algorithms so that developers can keep user data safe and sound from evil entities.

WMPoweruser also notes on the Windows Phone 7 security features:

While the device has the basic ability to enforce a PIN and other user policies, the primary security feature is the Isolated storage, enforced by the operating system, which means one malicious application will not be able to read the data of another, except by going through vetted launchers and pickers.

Pretty nifty stuff there, but seemingly standard. Also note that Windows Phone 7, or WinPho7 as we like to call it here at IntoMobile, still has some time before it’s finally released to the masses, so things can still change and improve. Check out the video below for more details.
