Wanting notarisation of developers to occur every time they access code within the BREW® environment and also needing robust root key security, QUALCOMM elected to leverage Symantec Code Signing Certificates and has since successfully defended the code from all unauthorised developer access.
Since going live we have not had a single unauthorised developer breach our security, which is why our relationship with Symantec is so strong and long-standing... We have an inherent trust in Symantec to protect us.

- Telecommunications
Challenges
- It was critical to ensure that the BREW environment did not allow the company's high standards of trust and integrity to be open to compromise.
- Needed operational physical security for the BREW root key.
- All developers accessing the code base needed to be validated and authorised.
Solution
- Symantec Document IDs for BREW®
- Symantec Platinum support
Results
- There has not been a single unauthorised developer security breach.
- The BREW root key is appropriately secured.
- A notarised, time-stamped record is created for all code changes within the environment, creating an auditable history of all activities.
