Top Threats to Mobile Security and What you Can do to Prevent Them #infographic

Published by Web Desk Monday, November 9, 2015

In the Star Trek fictional universe, high tech shields provided starships, space stations and planets with protection against threats and damage. If a shield was projected around a ship or other body, it could deflect projectiles and even weapons of enemies. The deflector shields operated by creating a layer, or layers, of energetic distortion around the object that needed to be protected.

When it comes to information security, we face similar challenges to Capitan Kirk and his Starship Enterprise; it’s just that the Klingons are replaced with a different kind of bad guy. And applications continue to top the list of our bad guy’s favorite targets. In fact, research suggests that 80% of successful breaches target the application layer. What’s more, with the explosive growth of the mobile channel and user demand for anytime/anywhere access to mobile services, mobile apps are stretching the boundaries of security, and putting them squarely in the crosshairs when it comes to malicious attacks.
