Waterloo, Ont.-based BlackBerry said its global survey of 1,100 software developers at automotive companies found that security threats were their top concern for the future of the industry, above regulation, tariffs or innovation. (The Logic)
Talking point: Canadian developers are second only to Japan in their worries about security threats overall, with 57 per cent citing security as one of the biggest issues with the future of the industry, up from 42 per cent last year. The issue will be particularly important for BlackBerry, which sells its QNX software platform to automakers. It saw a 27 per cent year-over-year increase in revenue from the segment last quarter amid growth in China and a new deal with Uber. Outside Canada, developers in China and Japan also listed security as their overwhelming concern: in both countries, 87 per cent of developers expect to fend off a hack by 2029.
