RIM has hit back at accusations that its BlackBerry can be used by hackers as a simple gateway into a corporate network. The company has said that the attack described by Jesse D'Aguanno makes a number of assumptions that security features are disabled.

RIM makes a good point in that users cannot download attachments, malicious or otherwise.
