BlackBerry launches Heartbleed bug fix update

BlackBerry recently acknowledged that the Heartbleed bug is a serious threat to all platforms, be it mobile or desktop. However, the Canadian tech company also stated that a hacker needed to be highly professional to exploit the vulnerabilities caused by the bug. He has a very small window and has to act fast and more importantly, he has to be monitoring the right device at the right time to try stealing the password he is looking for.

BlackBerry has officially started deploying a new update for all BlackBerry phones, which is being released in batches. The update will also include a few other bug fixes apart from the Heartbleed bug patch.
