Samsung and BlackBerry team up to improve Knox security on Android

Samsung’s Knox security solution is getting some pretty massive improvements today, which is great news for government and enterprise customers looking at Samsung devices. BlackBerry has announced that they are teaming up with Samsung to integrate BB’s end-to-end encryption into the existing Knox software suite. There are also a handful of other new features to better deal with Android’s security, too, so both companies are taking this pretty seriously.

Samsung wants more market share, and business and government employees represent a sizable chunk of the market. This push for extra security should help bring in a few more customers, and it’ll be a smart move for BlackBerry, too. Many customers still want BlackBerry-level of security, but don’t actually want a BlackBerry device, so this is a way for the company to stay relevant on the software side of things.
