“BlackBerry is extremely proud to offer our Federal customers the BlackBerry Government Mobility Suite FedRAMP-authorized cloud service.  A FedRAMP authorization provides Federal agencies and contractors the peace of mind that a cloud solution can be trusted to meet the stringent cybersecurity capabilities and processes required to handle federal data,” said Rear Admiral Bob Day, U.S. Coast Guard (ret), President of BlackBerry Government Solutions. “This means employees can work efficiently, as well as communicate and collaborate securely, to conduct the business of the U.S. government from anywhere and on any device.”

BlackBerry Government Mobility Suite eliminates the need for Federal agencies to own, operate, and constantly recapitalize on on-premises equipment.  Additionally, the BlackBerry Government Solutions U.S.-based and U.S. citizen-staffed Security Operations and Compliance teams will manage the FedRAMP continuous monitoring and remediation program, reducing the amount of time that Agencies spend to ensure their mobility program meets Federal cybersecurity requirements. The FedRAMP-authorized endpoint management cloud solution is now listed on FedRAMP’s Marketplace.
