Architecture: 
CylancePROTECT

The UEM, device, and cloud components of the CylancePROTECT architecture
Component
Description
BlackBerry UEM
 management console
Use the 
UEM
 management console to:
  • Scan hosted 
    Android
     apps for malware when you upload the app files to 
    UEM
     for deployment
  • Maintain a list of approved apps that are exempt from 
    Android
     malware detection and 
    iOS
     sideload detection
  • Maintain a list of approved and blocked domains for safe browsing
  • Enable and configure integrity checking for 
    BlackBerry Dynamics
     apps on 
    iOS
     devices
  • Enable and configure hardware certificate attestation for 
    BlackBerry Dynamics
     apps on 
    Android
     devices
CylancePROTECT
 profile
Create a 
CylancePROTECT
 profile and assign it to users to enable 
CylancePROTECT
 features on 
iOS
 and 
Android
 devices.
Activation profile
Create and assign a 
UEM
 activation profile to users to enable 
iOS
 integrity checking and 
Android
 hardware certificate attestation for 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 apps at activation time.
Compliance profile
Create and assign a 
UEM
 compliance profile to users to take the appropriate management actions when:
  • Malware is detected on an 
    Android
     device
  • A sideloaded app is detected on an 
    iOS
     device
  • BlackBerry Dynamics
     app on an 
    iOS
     device fails an integrity check
  • BlackBerry Dynamics
     app on an 
    Android
     device fails hardware certificate attestation 
CylanceINFINITY
CylanceINFINITY is a cloud-based platform that uses sophisticated AI and machine learning to determine whether software and websites are potentially malicious and a threat to the security of device endpoints in a 
UEM
 domain.
When you upload an 
Android
 app that you want to deploy with 
UEM
UEM
 sends the app files to 
CylanceINFINITY
 for analysis and risk assessment. 
CylanceINFINITY
 returns a confidence score that identifies the app as safe or as malware.
The 
UEM Client
 and 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 apps on 
Android
 devices send app files to 
CylanceINFINITY
 for analysis and risk assessment. 
CylanceINFINITY
 returns a confidence score that identifies the app as safe or as malware.
When a user navigates to a URL in a 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 app, the app sends the URL to 
CylanceINFINITY
 in real-time to determine if it is safe. You can choose the user experience when a user tries to navigate to an unsafe URL.
Apple
 DeviceCheck framework
The 
iOS
 integrity check feature allows you to leverage the Apple DeviceCheck framework to periodically verify the integrity of 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 apps on users' 
iOS
 devices.
BlackBerry UEM Client
 and 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 apps
UEM
 communicates with the 
UEM Client
 on a user’s device to apply configuration settings and profiles. 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 apps are productivity apps that give users secure access to work resources.
The 
BlackBerry Dynamics SDK
 and the 
CylancePROTECT
 library are integrated with the 
UEM Client
 and 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 apps, supporting additional functionality that allows these apps to detect malware on 
Android
 devices, sideloaded apps on 
iOS
 devices (
UEM Client
 and 
BlackBerry Work
 only), and unsafe URLs when using 
BlackBerry Access
 and other 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 apps.
