Nokia Pushmail

The Indian givernment has finally found a way to encrypt data from BlackBerry and other popular email services sch as Yahoo, Skype, Nokia Pushmail, Gmail and others. The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) is working on a model wherein direct tapping of BBM services would be possible instead of sending requests to RIM for surveillance. To sort out this issue, the MHA has set up a server, controlled by a team of officers which would help in direct linkage with the servers of these giants for interception. The MHA has also suggested that the interception of email services by Yahoo, Nokia Pushmail and Gmail can take place if these service providers ensure that all emails accessed from India are routed through servers located in India. Conversations through Skype would soon get intercepted as well, with Skype planning to set up India-centric software. More →
