Security Strategy, Plan, Budget

A new HTTPS remote administration tool for Android-based mobile devices has been discovered for sale on underground marketplaces, according to Symantec security researchers.

Recent breaches have highlighted the need for talented technologists with the ability to assess vulnerabilities long before they are under attack.

Yair Amit, CTO of Skycure, discusses his company's recent discover of an iOS vulnerability that allows for concealed mobile attack and demonstrates an example of the hack.

Jeff Forristal demonstrated the hack during a session on "predatory hacking of mobile devices."

Two senior security researchers have detailed how hackers can use "touchlogging" attack techniques to take control of iOS and Android devices.

The masses won't ditch passwords until authentication alternatives become more practical in the everyday lives of users, experts said.

In an age of advanced attacks and insider threats, traditional perimeter-based security just doesn't cut it, argue two leading InfoSec experts.
