Amazon is promising to bring back encryption for its Fire OS after removing it in its latest update. Amazon says it removed encryption from Fire OS because very few people were using them, according to its analytical data. But with Apple’s current battle with FBI dominating the news, it couldn’t have come at a worse time. Those who care about keeping their data secure weren’t happy about the decision. Many Fire tablet owners threatened not to buy another Amazon device, while other just refused to update to Fire OS 5. But Amazon has now changed there mind. “We will return the option for full disk encryption with a Fire OS update coming this spring”. Good move on Amazons part. We need encryption and security to be a top priority for companies across the bored. What do you think ? Tuesday, March 8, 2016
