BlackBerry Spark
The EoT Platform for Ultra-secure Hyperconnectivity
Shaping the Future of Connectivity and Privacy
BlackBerry® Spark is the only Enterprise of Things (EoT) platform designed and built for ultra-secure
hyperconnectivity from the kernel to the edge.
Moving from ‘Mobile-first’ to ‘Thing-first’
Defined by IDC as the interconnectedness of people, organizations and objects, hyperconnectivity is set to revolutionize the way people work and live. BlackBerry Spark customers will be able to create entirely new user experiences that take advantage of hyperconnectivity.
OEMs
BlackBerry Spark will enable OEMs to make complex things, autonomous vehicles and industrial equipment which must have the highest levels of security and safety-certification, as well as consumer-friendly interfaces to complex processes and artificial intelligence (AI), such as voice-activated speakers with privacy protection designed in at the start.
Enterprises
With BlackBerry Spark, enterprises can leverage AI and manage smart ‘things’ regardless of operating system (i.e., Android, iOS, Linux, QNX and Windows) via a single pane of glass and snap-in existing platform services such as Android Things, AWS, Azure, and Watson.
People
BlackBerry Spark will empower people to use and trust any hyperconnected ‘thing’ and the new experiences they enable by making military-grade security easy and intuitive to use. And, as the workforce continues to evolve, BlackBerry Spark will provide end users with the flexibility to move seamlessly and securely between their personal and work profiles.
Unmatched Privacy, Compliance and Security
BlackBerry Spark leverages the company’s deep portfolio of technology that has earned 80+ certifications, more than any other IoT vendor. It includes FIPS-validated, app-level, AES 256-bit encryption to ensure data is always protected on a device, across the mobile network and into a company’s infrastructure. BlackBerry Spark will enable organizations to comply with stringent multi-national regulatory requirements. In fact, BlackBerry is the only EoT platform provider to achieve Common Criteria EAL4+ for both iOS and Android, providing the highest level of security in the market.
"BlackBerry Spark is a bold but necessary step in helping organisations bridge these worlds, creating new connected experiences whilst simplifying and improving security from the chip to the edge."
