Google and Android OEMs have shipped Android to 2 billion active devices around the world. That's made it a big target when it comes to vulnerabilities, which is a headache for enterprise. Keeping company data safe and secure is a top priority for businesses, and it's a big reason why Google pushes out monthly security updates and why it recently increased its bug bounties. To coincide with those efforts, Google's launching a new program: Android Enterprise Recommended program.
With the Android Enterprise Recommended program, Google wants to make it easy for enterprise customers to determine which devices are best for them. This program isn't fully controlled by Google, but it's a global initiative that aims to identify devices that receive frequent security updates and offer a reliable and consistent software experience.
Smartphones and tablets that are a part of the program vetted by Google and must meet a certain number of requirements. As part of the validation process, OEMs receive technical support and training from Google.
We've included a few of the Android Enterprise Recommended criteria below, but you can find a full list here:
Minimum hardware specifications for Android 7.0+ devices
Google says that more are on the way, and that throughout this year, it'll be applying the Android Enterprise Recommended framework to additional partners, including OEMs of "rugged" devices, mobile carriers, enterprise mobility management (EMM) providers, and systems integrators.
In the last couple of months, we have seen very few smartphones launches in the Sub Rs. 10,000 price range. Now, a new smartphone from CENTRiC Mobiles called CENTRiC L3 is launched in India.
