As part of the strategy to make its devices more secure than those made by competing handset makers, BlackBerry plans to establish the “Security Innovation Center” in Washington, D.C.
The idea is not new and has been initially unveiled by CEO John Chen during the company’s recent quarterly results. At that time, Chen said that BlackBerry is “going back to its roots,” focusing on the enterprise market, as well as a number of different government agencies.
During CES, BlackBerry re-iterated the idea, adding that the center will serve as a “hub for collaboration with key government customers and other expert partners.”
Unfortunately we don’t have other details and will rather have to wait for other information that will be revealed in the “coming weeks.”
The way I see thing, no one doubts BlackBerry’s security. The problem, however, is that BlackBerry smartphones lack key apps and can’t sing along some of the hottest new accessories unveiled during the past year. But that’s another story…
