SECURITY ISSUE WITH MOBILE PHONE

PHYSICAL SECURITY:-

encryption was hacked sometimes ago and is not considered safe
anymore.

SMS:-
Text messages are sent in plain text over the network, so they are
also not considered secure.

Beware that your phone also have a unique identifier, so switching SIM
cards will not guarantee to protect your privacy.

MOBILE SECURITY TECHNOLOGIES

1. MOBILE DEVICE MANAGEMENT

MDM is a security application that allows your IT team to
centrally monitor, manage, and secure employees’ mobile devices.

2. MOBILE DEVICE DEFENSE

MDT solutions protect mobile devices against threats using
techniques such as network protection, vulnerability management,
behavioral anomaly detection, application scanning, and risk management.

Using MTD solutions along with MDM software helps to improve threat detection and
remediation

3. MOBILE APPLICATION MANGEMENT

MAM software solutions helps in managing and controlling access to
internal and commercial mobile apps. These solutions direct users can
secure app stores as well as provide administrators with granular controls
to manage the apps.

4.CONTAINERIZATION
Containerization is technology that helps create virtual pieces of a hardware
infrastructure and then splits these pieces from the rest of architecture. It helps to improve
mobile security by keeping personal information separate from business data , isolating
malicious mobile apps, storing apps, and storing sensitive information in an encrypted area.

Mobile devices do pose some threat to corporate world. But its is necessary
direction. There are steps that can be taken to secure the devices. Employees can be
trained and educated on corporate society to help understand risks involved. There are
steps company can take to secured the devices with employee compromise if they want
to use their own devices. IT installing security software on to devices for some
protection of intrusions and the fingerprint lock requirements are two examples our
world is run on mobile technology and it is impossible to not involve mobile devices in
business. It is a matter of how to make them safer to use for business and not cause a
