According to reports its not only the United Arab Emirates that are concerned with the encryption that BlackBerry devices use could potentially be a security threat to the country, India are also airing their concerns.
India is not happy with RIM’s encrypted email and messaging services and has asked RIM to follow strict guide lines or face being shut down in India.
India Government officials are suggesting that if RIM has followed security protocols in other countries allowing security officials to have access to encrypted email and messages, they should also have the same access.
Currently RIM BlackBerry handsets have failed to comply with the security concerns of Indian authorities and officials have now warned RIM that they could face a Blackberry ban in India in the event of the company failing to give the details of data shared by its users to the government.
