The Government on Wednesday said the country's security agencies have expressed dissatisfaction over the solution provided by BlackBerry smartphone maker Research-In-Motion (RIM).
“For Blackberry Messenger (BBM) services, a solution has been offered by RIM but the security agencies are not satisfied with the solution,” the Minister of State for IT and Communications, Mr Sachin Pilot, said in a written reply to the Lok Sabha.
The Government has asked RIM to handover interception solution for its BlackBerry Internet Services (BIS), BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) and BlackBerry Enterprise Servers (BES) by January 31, 2011.
RIM later claimed it has given government solution to intercept BIS and BBM before the stipulated timeline but denied to have any solution to intercept BES.
