End-to-end encrypted consumer messaging apps leave metadata unprotected and exposed to adversaries, posing a serious national security vulnerability for government officials who use them. Maaz Yasin explains how communication patterns and metadata can be weaponized by AI to launch deepfake attacks, compromise national security, and breach operational coordination. Only systems designed for sovereignty and operational invisibility can meet today’s threats.

In today’s volatile geopolitical climate, national security depends on more than just encrypted messages — it demands full-spectrum secure communications: verified identity, metadata protection, and sovereign control over communications infrastructure. Maaz Yasin writes about how government officials can mitigate national security risks related to mobile communications. Too often, officials turn to consumer messaging apps for convenience, at the cost of control and operational security. That’s a risk nations can no longer afford. BlackBerry® Secure Communications delivers what others cannot: · Verified cryptographic identity · Sovereign deployment with no reliance on third parties · End-to-end encryption of all data, including metadata that reveals patterns of life · Global certifications (NATO, NSA CSfC, Canada Secret) Trusted by G7 governments, defense, and critical infrastructure agencies — because encryption alone is not enough.
