BlackBerry Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT)
The BlackBerry Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) is dedicated to making BlackBerry® one of the most secure platforms available. By establishing collaborative relationships across the industry, monitoring the security threat landscape, and responding swiftly to emerging incidents, the PSIRT ensures that customers have the necessary guidance and tools to safeguard their systems and devices.
Security Advisories and Bulletins
BlackBerry issues security advisories to inform customers about the resolution of confirmed vulnerabilities in supported BlackBerry products. These advisories provide technical details regarding the vulnerability, mitigations, workarounds, and guidance on reducing risk. By releasing security advisories in alignment with industry practices, BlackBerry ensures that customers are informed and protected.
Security Updates
The BlackBerry PSIRT prioritizes protecting customers from security threats by providing security updates for publicly released, non-Beta BlackBerry products. Issues are scored using the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS), with severe vulnerabilities receiving the highest priority. Before releasing updates, BlackBerry conducts thorough testing to ensure quality, informing customers through security advisories and notices.
Collaborations and Acknowledgements
Collaboration is integral to the work of the BlackBerry PSIRT, involving customers, partners, vendors, governments, academics, and the security research community. This ongoing engagement enables BlackBerry to deliver a unique level of security that customers can rely on. The team acknowledges individuals and organizations for reporting security issues under industry practices or coordinated disclosure, highlighting their contributions.
