AGAT Software Joins BlackBerry’s ISV Partner Program
AudioCodes to Deliver End-to-End Voice Quality Monitoring of Microsoft Teams
SphereShield integration with BlackBerry UEM enables secure access to Skype for Business on mobile devices
JERUSALEM - AGAT Software, an innovative security provider specializing in security and compliance solutions, has announced it has joined BlackBerry’s ISV partner program and deployed the SphereShield solution in multiple global financial institutions and government agencies. SphereShield extends security solutions for Skype for Business on mobile devices, safely enabling them for external access.
SphereShield integration with BlackBerry® UEM
When Skype for Business services are used inside a corporate network or through a VPN- connected PC, security risks are negligible. However, the Skype for Business app can be freely installed on a personal device, outside corporate control, and open a traffic channel into the company network. This presents significant risks including theft of domain credentials and malicious traffic entering the network.
SphereShield’s integrated solution with BlackBerry® UEM allows organizations to ensure that only managed devices compliant with the company’s security policy can access Skype for Business. Verification occurs at enrollment but also continuously applies device security level verification to identify devices that have come Out Of Compliance (OOC). The integration utilizes server-side web services in conjunction with a dedicated SphereShield app using BlackBerry Dynamics API.
“We are pleased to be part of BlackBerry’s ISV program and look forward to working together to deliver our dependable and scalable offering to safely enable the use
of Skype for Business on mobile devices,” said Yoav Crombie, Business Manager at AGAT Software.
“Being able to manage an enterprise of IoT devices is quickly becoming the new norm for businesses across all industries,” said Peter Ng, Senior Director, Alliances and Business Development, BlackBerry. “By integrating SphereShield with the BlackBerry UEM platform, enterprises can manage a large
fleet of diverse and connected devices from a single console, while at the same time ensure communication is compliant, private and secure.”
BlackBerry’s ISV Partner applications
are available through the BlackBerry Marketplace and are delivered securely through the BlackBerry Dynamics container. In achieving BlackBerry’s ISV partner certification, AGAT Software has demonstrated a significant level of industry experience providing a BlackBerry® UEM integrated solution.
Gartner, Inc., the leading provider
of research and analysis on the global information technology industry, recently named BlackBerry a Leader in the 2018 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Unified Endpoint Management Tools.

Lod, Israel - AudioCodes, a leading vendor
of advanced voice networking and media processing solutions for the digital workplace, has announced that it has worked with Microsoft to deliver end-to-end voice
quality monitoring for Microsoft Teams environments.
The new monitoring capabilities are facilitated by AudioCodes’ Microsoft-certified Mediant session border controllers (SBCs) in collaboration with the One Voice Operations Center (OVOC), both components of the AudioCodes One Voice for Microsoft 365 portfolio of products and solutions for Microsoft voice implementations.
AudioCodes was one of the first vendors whose session border controllers (SBCs) were certified for Direct Routing functionality, enabling seamless PSTN and SIP trunk
voice connectivity for Teams environments. Support for Direct Routing means that AudioCodes SBCs connect directly to the Teams Front End servers giving them end- to-end visibility into Teams calls. Call quality information is extracted from Microsoft reports, combined with relevant parameters collected from SIP trunks and reported to
the One Voice Operations Center (OVOC) centralized network and monitoring tool.
OVOC analyzes the call quality information to help network administrators identify trends and troubleshoot issues which could result
in service-affecting problems. AudioCodes also plans to support Microsoft’s Event Hub API in the future, which will enable quality monitoring of calls between individual Teams clients.
“For over ten years, AudioCodes has
been committed to delivering enhanced voice solutions for Microsoft unified communications offerings,” said Nimrode Borovsky, VP global marketing at AudioCodes. “Our support for end-to-end voice quality monitoring in Microsoft Teams environments enhances our One Voice portfolio designed to ease and accelerate adoption of Microsoft Teams as an intelligent communications solution.”
Nikolay Muravlynannikov, Principal Program Manager, Microsoft Corp. said, “We are pleased to continue our collaboration
with AudioCodes, offering new innovative solutions that deliver real value to our customers. AudioCodes quickly identifies customer needs and delivers effective solutions, which strengthens our collaboration and the overall Microsoft solution.”
