吉隆坡，馬來西亞, 2025年10月22日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - BlackBerry Limited（紐交所代碼：BB；多倫多證交所代碼：BB）今日宣布，馬來西亞已部署 BlackBerry® AtHoc® 與 BlackBerry® SecuSUITE®，以在2025年東盟峰會期間（包括5月舉行的第46屆東盟峰會，以及10月26日至28日在吉隆坡舉行的第47屆東盟峰會）確保通訊安全並保護人員安全。圖片來源: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.東盟峰會是該區最為複雜的外交活動之一，涉及超過500場會議及數千名來自多個政府部門的人員。該活動由馬來西亞外交部透過東盟主要後勤秘書處（SILA）協調舉辦，聚集了東盟成員國以及來自美洲、歐洲、非洲及亞洲的主要合作夥伴之國家元首、部長與官員。圖片來源: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.在第46屆峰會成功部署後，SILA 進一步擴大使用黑莓的安全通訊平台，以保護峰會指揮與控制作業，無論是在作業中心內或於行動過程中。隨著高級信號情報能力日益為惡意行為者所利用，保護行動通訊的安全比以往任何時候都更為重要。BlackBerry AtHoc 是一個關鍵事件管理平台，結合了安全的緊急通知與事件回應工具，使各部門之間能即時透過行動裝置協調。BlackBerry SecuSUITE 則是一款獲得北約認證的軍規級安全語音與訊息解決方案，能防止針對行動通訊的攔截與間諜活動。圖片來源: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.東盟主要後勤秘書處（SILA）負責人Raja Saifful Ridzuwan Raja Kamaruddin 閣下表示：「我們約有80%的跨部門通訊受到保護，其中部分內容極為機密，直接關係到各國元首與官員的安全。有了黑莓，我們找到了一個加密且開放的通訊平台，既能保護敏感資訊，又能提升協調效率。」BlackBerry 執行長 John Giamatteo 補充表示：「作為 2025 年東盟輪值主席國，馬來西亞正為主權級安全通訊建立新的規範。BlackBerry 很榮幸能以先進的軍規級解決方案，協助 SILA 與馬來西亞政府保護人員安全、維護敏感對話的機密性，並確保複雜作業能即時順暢進行。」圖片來源: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.在第 46 屆峰會期間，共有 100 名聯絡官（LO）使用 BlackBerry AtHoc 傳送安全、基於地理位置的警報並進行協調管理。即將舉行的第 47 屆峰會將擴增至 150 名聯絡官，所有人皆配備安裝了 AtHoc 與 SecuSUITE 的 iOS 與標準 Android 裝置。這種靈活性讓聯絡官能安全地與來訪代表團及外國團隊溝通，減少所需裝置數量，同時確保從任何地點皆能進行端對端加密語音與安全訊息交流。BlackBerry AtHoc 亦支援行動指揮與控制，協助官員監控人員動態、迅速回應天候或安全事件，並透過經驗證的安全資訊，與如馬來西亞皇家警察（PDRM）等部門無縫協作。Raja Saifful 閣下補充說：「五分鐘的延誤可能意味著錯過五十條訊息。BlackBerry AtHoc 簡化了我們跨部門的溝通方式，而 SecuSUITE 則加密語音指令，以防止竊聽與外洩。為了第 47 屆東盟峰會，我們正在擴大這兩項解決方案的應用，以確保活動的安全、流暢與高度協調。」此次部署的技術與標準與 2018 及 2025 年 G7 峰會與部長級會議所採用者相當。當時加拿大政府全球事務部轄下的峰會管理辦公室使用 BlackBerry AtHoc 於多個政府部門間建立安全、整合的通訊機制，樹立了營運韌性與跨部門協作的標竿。更多資訊請瀏覽 BlackBerry.com 或關注 @BlackBerry。關於 BlackBerryBlackBerry（NYSE: BB；TSX: BB）為企業和政府提供支撐世界運行的智慧軟體與服務。總部位於加拿大安大略省滑鐵盧，BlackBerry 的高效能基礎軟體協助主要汽車製造商及工業巨頭實現應用變革、開創新營收模式並推出創新商業模式，同時確保安全性、可靠性與穩定性不受影響。 憑藉在安全通訊領域的深厚積澱，BlackBerry 提供全面、高度安全並經過嚴格認證的產品組合，涵蓋行動防護、關鍵任務通訊及重大事件管理，以確保業務持續運行與營運韌性。商標聲明：包括但不限於 BLACKBERRY 及 EMBLEM Design 及 QNX 及 QNX logo在內的商標均為 BlackBerry Limited 的商標或註冊商標，BlackBerry 明確保留其專有權利。所有其他商標均為其各自所有者的財產。 BlackBerry 不對任何第三方產品或服務負責。媒體聯絡:BlackBerry Media Relations+1 (519) 597-7273mediarelations@BlackBerry.com圖片來源:https://www.myasean2025.my/photos/ 來源: BlackBerry Limited Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 22, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - BlackBerry Limited (NYSE:BB)(TSX:BB) today announced that Malaysia has deployed BlackBerry® AtHoc® and BlackBerry® SecuSUITE® to secure communications and protect people during the ASEAN Summit events in 2025, including the 46th ASEAN Summit held in May, and the 47th ASEAN Summit taking place in Kuala Lumpur from October 26 to 28.Photo Credit: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.The ASEAN Summits are among the region's most complex diplomatic events, involving more than 500 meetings and thousands of personnel across multiple government agencies. Coordinated by Malaysia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs through the ASEAN Main Logistics Secretariat (SILA), the Summits bring together heads of state, ministers, and officials from ASEAN member countries and key partners across the Americas, Europe, Africa, and Asia.Photo Credit: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.Following a successful deployment at the 46th Summit, SILA has expanded its use of BlackBerry's secure communications platform to protect command and control operations, both within the Summit's operations center and on the move. As advanced signal intelligence capabilities become increasingly available to malicious actors, safeguarding mobile communications has never been more critical.BlackBerry AtHoc, a critical event management platform, combines secure emergency notifications with incident response tools to enable real-time mobile coordination across agencies.

With BlackBerry, we found an encrypted, open communications platform that protects sensitive information while improving coordination."John Giamatteo, CEO of BlackBerry, added: "As ASEAN Chair in 2025, Malaysia is setting a new standard for sovereign secure communications at scale. BlackBerry is honoured to support SILA and the Government of Malaysia with advanced, military-grade solutions that safeguard people, protect sensitive conversations, and keep complex operations moving in real time."Photo Credit: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.During the 46th Summit, 100 liaison officers (LOs) used BlackBerry AtHoc to send secure, location-based alerts and manage coordination. The upcoming 47th Summit will expand to 150 LOs, all equipped with AtHoc and SecuSUITE on iOS and standard Android devices. This flexibility allows LOs to securely communicate with visiting delegations and foreign teams, reducing the number of devices needed while maintaining end-to-end encrypted voice and secure messaging from anywhere.BlackBerry AtHoc also enables mobile command-and-control, helping officials monitor movements, respond swiftly to weather or security incidents, and coordinate seamlessly across agencies such as the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM) using validated, secure information."Five minutes can mean 50 missed messages," H.E. Raja Saifful added. "BlackBerry AtHoc streamlines how we communicate across agencies, while SecuSUITE encrypts voice instructions to prevent eavesdropping and leaks. For the 47th ASEAN Summit, we are expanding both solutions to deliver a safe, seamless, and highly coordinated event."The technology and standards deployed are comparable to those used during the 2018 and 2025 G7 Summits and Ministerial Meetings, where the Government of Canada's Summits Management Office under Global Affairs Canada relied on BlackBerry AtHoc for secure, integrated communication across multiple government departments-setting a benchmark for operational resilience and inter-agency collaboration.See the video here and blog here.
