As I read the article it is more about the military's access to the source code, as opposed to protecting local businesses in this case, therefore they allow android which is open source.
- joelhaasnoot 14y agoThink this is more related to the fact that Android has a very plugable Device Management feature, that allows remote wipes, etc. iPhone has similar features but not as enterprise-friendly.
- helpbygrace 14y agoI agree with it. If Apple supports Device Management scheme, S.Korea Military won't prevent iPhone. Actually not just iPhone but all other phones that MDM cannot be installed.
- Apple-Guy 14y agoApple iPhone has supported MDM for years: http://www.apple.com/iphone/business/integration/mdm/ http://www.apple.com/iphone/business/integration/mdm/
- krallja 14y agoThis should be the top comment on this article. S.Korea bans phones that do not support MDM. iPhone supports MDM. Therefore iPhone is banned anyway.
- alokm 14y agoBut I don't think the military would be entrust there security on the Apple Push notification service. Also any military would always be skeptical unless they have access to the whole source code.
