The biggest security threat to your business, private life and technology is not where you might think it is. Hackers and criminals want to keep it that way too. These criminals have already developed millions of Trojan Horses and other malware programs and you probably didn’t even know you had anything to worry about – at least not where and what they are targeting. According to Kaspersky Lab in a recently published security intelligence paper, over 110,000 new malicious programs were distributed via nearly 4 million installation packages in 2013 and security experts expect approximately 4-5 million install packages will be developed to distribute security threats this year. And these threats are not targeting your computers… they are after your mobile devices.
In 2013, 98% of the malware attacking mobile devices were against Android smart phones and tablets. So far in 2014, 99% of the threats are aimed at Androids. The number one attack vector is your wallet, specifically, Banking and financials. That doesn’t mean that you are safe if you have an iPhone or other iOS device. In the fi
rst quarter of 2014, a Trojan Horse targeting iOS devices was detected and it was very effective and devastating. That’s not the only thing you have to worry about either. Did you know that your camera and microphone can be turned on without your knowledge? Or that you or your children can be easily tracked with pin-point accuracy? Do you have any apps installed from one of your favorite stores, retailers or restaurants and notice that whenever you are close to these organizations, you start getting text messages? Does that bother you? Would it bother you if a hacker/criminal/pedophile could do the same thing?
