> Department of Defense Approves BlackBerry for MDM

Remember when President Obama had to get a special, encrypted version of his BlackBerry in order to continue using a smartphone post-election? It’s taken the US Department of Defense (DoD) about five years since then to support anything but restricted smartphone use (no selfsies, folks), but now a step is at hand: The US Defense Information System Agency (DISA) has given BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry Q10 smartphones with BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 the authority to operate (ATO) on DoD networks.
