The government has asked National Security Advisor (NSA) to find a way to monitor the emails sent by BlackBerry users. The government is taking very seriously the issue of not being able to monitor the BlackBerry users data.

So far RIN, the company providing BlackBerry services has flatly refused to lower the encryption level as was being demanded by Indian agencies. The company had said that if it lowers the encryption level of the Blackberry users, hackers will have a field day with the devices and the data of its customers.

Due to the strong opposition of the RIM, the government has asked the National Security Advisor to supervise and devise a way out of this problem.
