BlackBerry could lose government sales to Apple, Samsung
WASHINGTON, May 3 () -- BlackBerry may lose favor with a big customer -- the U.S. Defense Department -- as department officials say they're considering Apple and Samsung alternatives.Following a review of Apple and Samsung's software for use on its secure classified and unclassified networks, the department may allow its employees to choose among Samsung and Apple smartphones and tablets for the office, a statement from the agency said.If that comes to pass it could further weaken BlackBerry's once dominant position among security-conscious government employees, The Washington Post reported Friday.It is security that has kept BlackBerry popular with businesses and government clients,[url=http://www.moncleroutleto.co.uk]moncler london[/url], and its new operating system, BlackBerry 10,[url=http://www.moncleroutleto.co.uk]moncler uk[/url], received Defense Department approval Thursday.The State Department,[url=http://www.pachasvip.com]abercrombie outlet[/url], NASA and the Department of Homeland Security have already given their employees approval to use iPhones, iPads and Android devices at work as well as BlackBerry smartphones.Although the review process could give defense employees the option of using Apple and Samsung devices,[url=http://www.pachasvip.com]hollister outlet[/url], it won't guarantee greater sales for any smartphone maker since approvals "do not directly result in product orders but facilitate the process by eliminating the need for security reviews at the individual DoD organization level," a department spokesman said in a statement.Apple and Samsung declined to comment on the Defense Department's review process, the Post said, and BlackBerry did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
