  7. Mobile Security Trends • Mobile is the newest platform… and now part of the endpoint • Emerging Mobile market lags PC… hackers attack the weakest link • Smartphones… the newest step in device evolution • Hybrid Ownership – The “Pro-sumer”… both employee & consumer • Loss/Theft/Damage of the device far more likely than PCs • New Trends in Mobile Device Attacks: • Pranking4Profit • Snoopware • Loss Mitigation

  8. Pranking4Profit Mobile devices are becoming digital wallets and identities • Mobile attacks now are more for financial gain… not notoriety • Premium SMS attacks can drain user accounts • Mobile devices are increasingly becoming payment instruments

  9. Snoopware Snoopware puts a stranger in your bedroom and a competitor in your boardroom • Invasion of Privacy • People are the Perimeter: Mobile blurs the distinction between Employee and Consumer, between user and network • If a mobile phone is always with you… it is always at risk • Snoopware: Mobile spyware exploits telephony apps…not just e-mail

  10. Loss Mitigation Lost phones hurt everyone: Users, Employers, and Operators • Loss/Theft/Damage of mobile devices is far more likely than PCs • Regulations forcing disclosure on lost laptops will apply to mobile phones as the information is shared between devices • Loss Mitigation: Flexible defense to match the risk

  11. Future of Mobile Enterprise and Security • Mobile security and mobile device management market: • $1B in 2004, $12B in 2009; 78% CAGR (Source: Adventis) • Mobile/wireless IT spending likely to exceed IT budget growth in many organizations: 12.5% avg. growth rate (Source: Gartner) • Enterprises will extend existing security applications to mobile devices • Mobile devices will increase their role in security • Enterprises will need security that support key mobile platforms: Symbian, Windows, Palm, and Linux • Ad hoc mobile security approaches are giving way to centralized security policies that address ALL endpoint devices: PCs, laptops and smartphones • ISPs will enable enterprises to secure “in region”
