Apple will not make it into the large company I work for. Here is a response from our IT dept:
-------------------
The release of Apple’s latest version of their iPhone (PDA) has generated a lot of interest and questions around its readiness for primetime connection to any corporate enterprise network and service.
They (iphone) are not ready to meet the minimum requirements necessary for risk mitigation and compliance with (company name) network security policy.
The iPhone 3G”s use of Microsoft’s ActiveSync capability is not secure enough potentially allowing risk from a compromised mobile device (PDA) where as the Blackberry and Goodlink solutions eliminate this risk outright.
Because of the increased risk associated with Microsoft’s ActiveSync, (company name) will be continuing to limit the options to Blackberry or Goodlink for mobile device (PDA) use.
--------------------
Does that make since that ActiveSync is a security risk?
