Boeing has released the details of its locked-down and secure Android smartphone called the Boeing Black. The American multinational corporation is seeking to answer data security concerns of the government. The handset is designed to lock Android apps and data using Boeing’s PureSecure architecture. It combines hardware media encryption, option to plug in modular components, and a trusted boot to cater to specific requirements. The module port is a 24-pin connector that works alongside the USB, microSD, and PDMI to be used with different sensors or a satellite radio. It can also be used to plug into alternative power sources, such as solar panels, to charge the 1590mAh Li-Ion battery.
Other specs of the Boeing Black include 1.2GHz dual-core ARM Cortex A9 processor, tri-band LTE, quad-band GSM/EDGE, tri-band WCDMA, dual-SIM capability, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, and a 960 x 540 qHD resolution. It’s not really flagship material but it secure as secure gets.
