Corporate Espionage Webinar

In viaForensics’ webinar Corporate Espionage via Mobile Compromise, Ted Eull, VP of Mobile Services, discusses the current state of mobile security, threat levels for various platforms, as well as traditional defenses (and lack thereof) in corporate settings. Additionally, Thomas Cannon, viaForensics’ Director of Research and Development, recently recorded a practical demonstration with the same title. This demonstration is included in the webinar. In it, Thomas shows how a innocent application can be used to harbor malware as well as how an attacker could use that malware to exfiltrate data from a mobile device, remotely activate phone features such as the camera and microphone, and can be used to bypass corporate defenses and infiltrate a corporate network. Key quotes, as well as the presentation video and transcribed audio are available.
