Hey Friends,

 

Episode 3 of The Secure Element is here! This month, I spoke with Brian Wood who runs the Android Certifications Programs to demystify what it takes to get a device approved for the federal government, a process that also benefits other security-focused industries like finance and healthcare.

 

Join us as we dive into:

  • The exact process for federal government device certification.
  • The roles of NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) and NIAP (National Information Assurance Partnership) in setting security standards.
  • Debunking myths about Android encryption, including its standing against iOS.

 

Listen to the episode here: 

 

Thanks for tuning in! We’d love to hear your thoughts or any further questions in the comments below and we’ll be sure to follow them up.

 

New to the series? Listen to Episode 1 and Episode 2 to hear more insights from industry leaders.

 

Stay secure,

 

Burr

    This offered a brilliant insight into a topic many hear of, but few need to get truly stuck into. Thanks Mike & Brian!

    Thanks Mike and Brian ! You have managed to make a difficult subject really understandable. This episode really helped me better understand Android device security. And the demystification about better iOS management is very well done.

      Thanks Mike & Brian, plenty of topics we also have in other countries !The principles are the same even if acronyms differ. The secure element sessions are always very interesting and we'd love to be with you in the discussions 😀 Maybe an idea for round tables in the future ;)
