Windows Phone - 商务应用

iPhone 4已经发布，Windows Phone 7还需等待。iPhone针对个人用户已经做到极致，微软的Windows Phone如果仅是copy那是很难追上了。 Windows Phone需要有自己的特点，其中还重要的就是对商务应用的支持，去争取企业客户。Windows Phone之与商务应用能做什么 ：

• Is built from the ground up using industry best practices in secure software development (Secure Development Lifecycle).
• Deeply Integrates email, calendar and contacts with Exchange Server enabling rich, seamless email and calendar management to enhance productivity.
• Integrates with SharePoint through the SharePoint Workspace client , enabling enhanced collaboration through offline document access and syncing.
• Helps protect corporate information by securing the device through PINs and passwords. Information is further protected by not allowing access to data via PC tethering or support for removable SD cards. In addition, Windows Phone 7 supports IT managed EAS policies such as Require Password, Password Strength, Remote Wipe and Reset to Factory Settings with multiple failed unlock attempts.
• Helps ensure data reliability and integrity through application sandboxing and managed code. Windows Phone 7 ensures communications channels between applications cannot be opened and critical system resources cannot be accessed. Most malware threats are introduced through the browser. IE Mobile helps ensure that malicious code cannot be launched from web sites, thus reducing this threat.
• Provides certification and verification of applications and content through Windows Phone Marketplace, further enhancing security.
• Enables secure data transmission through 128 or 256 Bit SSL Encryption .
• Supports secure access to on-premise applications and network resources using Forefront Universal Access Gateway (UAG).
• Is future ready with cloud / services integration . Through the Business Productivity Online Suite (BPOS), Microsoft offers hosted Exchange and SharePoint services. Windows Phone 7 will support mobile access to BPOS from Outlook Mobile and the Office Hub.
