No doubt the new iPhone 3G S along with the iPhone OS 3.0 will eventually find their way into the hands of enterprise users, but is the iPhone 3G S and iPhone OS 3.0 secure enough for corporate network?
Apparently mobile security experts have spoken to informationweek, and have said although iPhone OS 3.0 is a significant improvement it may fall short in a few categories.
According to InnoPath marketing manager, Jason Lackey, “A lot of folks are concerned about feature lists, and they put checkmarks next to a long list of options but no one cares about how they’re implemented or if the end user benefits from it. Apple has shown they know how to bake in these features, and bake them in right.”
Lackey believes the improved iPhone OS 3.0 and the lower price of the iPhone 3G will be a catalyst for larger adoption within the enterprise environment. One appealing feature is the ability to use the iPhone as a wireless modem for laptops.
