Non-corporate emails sent over BlackBerrys can be intercepted by the Indian government because; Canada based Research In Motion (RIM) may allow to do it. This move is likely to work out the row between the Department of Telecom (DoT) and RIM. This move is taken in keeping in mind government’s security concerns pertaining more to emails from individual users than enterprise customers.

In India, more than 1,14,000 customers of BlackBerry are from the enterprise segment. Though, decrypting emails of individual customers is a larger safety concern for Indian security agencies.
