Here’s an interesting thought: is your phone secure? After all, your phone contains access to your whole life – emails, messages, social media accounts, photos, and much more! And this is why its important to have the device secured. You’ve probably heard that cyber-crime is getting worse. The hackers etc are getting better at what they do and the next big thing is attacking smart phones. Here’s what we know about phone attacks:
  • Smartphones now account for over 60% of all cyber attacks globally
  • Phone malware is on the rise, and has increased by 62% over the last 2 years
  • It’s estimated that over 85% of corporations globally have fallen victim to phone phishing scams
  • If big corporations have fallen victim, with their teams of cyber security specialists and deep pockets, what chance do you have?

Here’s what to do:

  • Provide a plan to plug those gaps – before a cyber-criminal finds, and exploits, them
  • Determine a recovery plan should an attack be successful
  • Calculate how much funding and effort should be used to protect those assets
