Alpha Bytes Mobile Communications CrackBerry Alert IN THE AGE OF TEXT MESSAGING, PORTABILITY RAISES NEW COMPLIANCE AND SECURITY QUESTIONS. By Tom Groenfeldt s President-elect Barack Obama reluctantly gives up his BlackBerry out of concern about his privacy and for fear it could leak state secrets, executives in the financial sector are also grappling with how best to manage their wireless communications — both among senior executives and among rank-and-f ile traders, many of whom are addicted to text messaging. When the Financial Industry A Regulatory Authority — or FINRA, the body that sets industry standards — modiﬁ ed its e-mail policies in December 2007 to require ﬁrms to implement stronger controls over wireless messaging, one big investment bank in New York, which prefers to remain nameless, reacted bluntly but practically by banning all communications other than those via landline or by e-mail until it could ﬁ nd a solution, says Patrick Corr, vice president of sales at Onset Technology.
