Living in the Cloud: Mobile E-Mail Encryption
We are currently introducing S/MIME based encryption and signing for our mails. This works flawlessly an almost any desktop application. A question that came up was if there is support for our growing number of smartphones.
The question seems to be: Not for those platforms that we use. There is no support for IPhone, Android nor Symbian. There is no infortmation about Windows Mobile based devices… but who uses that anyway?
Blackberrys are the only mobile devices that have builtin S/MIME support. ( I had some hands-on time in the subway this morning)
I wonder why there is no support for secure e-mail communication on mobile devices?
Is there really no demand? What about all those business people running arround with their Nokias, Iphones or Androids?
PS. Could some IPhone user check if the phone is capable to display signed (NOT ENCRYPTED) mails??
