Dynamic security response with 

BlackBerry Persona

In SDK version 8.0 and later, the 

BlackBerry Dynamics SDK

 integrates 

BlackBerry Persona

 (previously 

BlackBerry Intelligent Security

) functionality. 

BlackBerry Persona

 is a license-based cloud service that can dynamically adapt the security requirements and behavior of your users' devices and work apps to their real-world contexts.

For example, if a 

BlackBerry Dynamics

 app reports a location that is not typical for the user, 

Persona

 can dynamically limit the user’s access to work apps, disable device features such as the camera, and enforce stricter authentication requirements. Likewise, if a 

BlackBerry Dynamics

 app reports a location that is typical for the user, 

Persona

 can apply device behaviors that make it easier to access work apps and resources.

Persona

 adds a layer of adaptive security to your organization’s existing 

UEM

 domain without introducing an additional software footprint. It is a cloud service that collects data from existing 

BlackBerry

 solutions, including 

BlackBerry Enterprise Identity

 and 

BlackBerry Dynamics

 apps.

The 

Persona

 services gather and process behavioral data, app events, and location data to calculate risk levels for each user in real-time and execute dynamic management actions that are configured by the 

UEM

 administrator.

For more information about 

Persona

, see the BlackBerry Persona documentation. For more information about integrating 

Persona

 with your 

BlackBerry Dynamics

 apps, see Integrating BlackBerry Persona.
