BlackBerry Names New Chief Security Officer

BlackBerry has named David Kleidermacher as its chief security officer on Tuesday, moving to further boost the smartphone maker’s credentials with security-conscious clients, including big players in the defense, automotive and healthcare sectors. Kleidermacher was previously chief technology officer at embedded software maker Green Hills Software, where he spent more than two decades. At Blackberry, he replaces Scott Totzke, who left the company last summer. BlackBerry said Kleidermacher will oversee a number of key initiatives, including security-specific research and product development, and the company’s product certification and approval program.
