We allow connections via a BES server and an Active Sync Server (Windows Mobile and iPhones). Phones provided by the university are Blackberries. We also encourage the purchase of Blackberries for personal use (which also go through our BES server). We do enforce security on both Blackberries and non-Blackberries. You can read the full policy at http://info-privacy.bentley.edu/policy/handheld-device-policy. Hope that helps.

Sent: Wednesday, December 16, 2009 12:58 PM To: SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU Subject: [SECURITY] Smartphones We’re curious to see how other Institutions are handling Smartphone security and support for employees/faculty. · Do you allow non-university phones to sync with your email? · What security do you enforce on the phone if any; pins, encryption, …? · Do you allow all types of Smartphone’s or do you limit support to Blackberries or Windows mobile, or …? · If you support Blackberries do you run a BES server? Any opinions on the BES server would be appreciated. Thanks, Brian Kellogg St. Bonaventure University
