Mobile Encryption: The Good, the Bad and the Broken

PRESENTED ON March 5, 2013

What is effective encryption? How effective is it, really? These are two questions that were the focus of viaForensics CEO Andrew Hoog’s presentation “Mobile Encryption: The Good, the Bad and the Broken” at RSA 2013 in San Francisco.

From the official RSA abstract:
