| Re: Back-up plans ?? - switch from Blackberry It's a lot more than remote wipe. My research is a couple of months old and this is off of the top of my head, but:
- Password complexity and enforcement
- Security policy implementation/enforcement for devices
- Wiping the whole device (including SD storage)
I'm sure there are others, but I don't have access to my research results. | |

| Re: Back-up plans ?? - switch from Blackberry Your first two concerns are already implemented in current push email and WM5 devices. That is you can, actually most deployment should always do so, push down a security policy in order to let the device to sync with server.
As for wipe out SD card, I think it is left out in WM5 and WM6.0 implements SD card encryption instead. | |

| Re: Back-up plans ?? - switch from Blackberry Push email and and sync are there, but from what I recall, the security policy and enforcement to the level that I needed was not. Things might have changed in the last few months and maybe when WM6 rolls, even more will change, but when I looked, Exchange and WM5 didn't have what I needed and BlackBerry and BES did.
SD card encryption is a step in the right direction. This can currently be accomplished with 3rd party apps like Apriva and Trust Digital, but out of the box, Microsoft didn't provide a good solution. | |
