Hmm. An interesting problem to tackle. It might actually be an article of interest had DISA not already tackled this issue a couple months ago.
From Information Week:
The organization that creates standards for the federal government’s use of technology is testing iPhones and iPads to devise the best ways of securing them for government use.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST’s) Office of Information Systems Management (OISM) is performing a pilot across the agency to “determine how best to proceed to provide a managed, secure configuration for NIST users of these devices,” according to a contract award notification posted on FedBizOpps.gov.
Do government organizations not talk to each oth…never mind.
