Mobile devices pose new security threats

With the widespread adoption of remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic, the mobile attack surface grew, with 97% of organizations now facing mobile threats from several known vulnerabilities. You must protect your mobile data to keep your business and personal information safe.

Mobile security trends worldwide are dominated by misinformation campaigns, supply chain attacks, phishing, smishing, mobile interception, and mobile malware.

Mobile security is an important component of a cybersecurity strategy in today's world. The widespread adoption of Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) policies was a direct result of the transition to remote work. Companies may have increased productivity and employee retention by enabling employees to work from personal devices, but they also lost crucial security visibility and the capacity to respond to infections that jeopardize corporate systems and solutions.

Mobile Malware attacks

According to reports, the number of malware attacks has doubled due to the increased use of banking apps. Malware attacks increased significantly in 2021, with hackers concentrating their efforts on smartphones, employing strategies such as surveillance, credential theft, and malicious adverts.

Cloud Services is still a primary target

Increased cloud adoption attracts more scrutiny from ethical hackers and cyber threat operators. Many of the attacks target cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, allowing an attacker to exploit multiple targets with a single vulnerability.
