Mobile security

Our services

Today, over 85% of organizations allow some form of BYOD (bring your own device). This represents a huge increase in potential vulnerabilities that can be exploited by cybercriminals.

The threat landscape is also constantly evolving, with new attack methods and vulnerabilities being discovered continuously. A mobile security assessment can help identify potential risks and vulnerabilities in your mobile devices and apps, so you can take steps to mitigate them.

 

If you, or the organization that you are working to protect, have any concerns about the security of your mobile devices or apps, a mobile security assessment is an ideal choice for you – it can give you the peace of mind that you need. That is what CyberMetis brings to the table.

What Is Mobile Security and Why Is It Important?

Mobile security is the process of securing mobile devices, such as

smartphones tablets laptops

from malicious software and viruses.

5.34 billion

With over 5.34 billion unique mobile users worldwide, mobile devices are increasingly being targeted by cybercriminals. Not to mention, the BYOD trend on the rise further increases the risk of a mobile security breach.

Mobile devices are attractive targets for cybercriminals because mobile devices often contain sensitive data, such as financial information, personal data, and corporate data. If this data falls into the wrong hands, it could be used for identity theft, fraud, or other malicious activities which can lead to financial loss or damage to one’s reputation.

CyberMetis will help you take care of Mobile Security ahead and minimize risk of potential cyber-attack.

Mobile Security Threats and Attacks

There are several mobile security threats and attacks that can be used to exploit vulnerabilities in mobile devices.

We identified 5 top mobile security threats

1 Phishing
These are fraudulent emails or text messages that are designed to trick the user into revealing sensitive information, such as passwords or credit card numbers. It is an attempt to steal one’s personal information.
2 Malware
This is software that is designed to damage or disable a mobile device. Malware can be installed on a device without the user’s knowledge and can be used to steal personal information, send spam messages, or even disable the device.
3 Cryptojacking
This is a type of attack where cybercriminals use malicious software to hijack the victim’s mobile device and use it to mine cryptocurrency without the user’s knowledge or consent.
4 Excessive app permissions
Some apps will ask for excessive permissions that are not necessary for the app to function properly. For example, a flashlight app should not need access to your contacts or text messages. If an app is requesting excessive permissions, it may be a sign that the app is malicious.
5 Outdated operating systems
The older the OS the more vulnerable a device is to attack. Cybercriminals are constantly finding new vulnerabilities in mobile operating systems that can be exploited. It’s important to keep your OS up to date to patch these vulnerabilities.
