Dear
Rob,
Please join ISSA KC chapter members and other security professionals at
Lidia's Restaurant.
Topic Summary: Today's
modern operating systems, like iOS and Android, are designed for
ubiquitous and wireless access from anywhere in the world, and have very
different use cases and security requirements compared with traditional
PCs and servers. Mobile devices are on and connected 24/7, and often
owned and managed by individuals, dramatically increasing the attack
surface relative to PCs. Malicious hackers have shifted much of
their attention to these new operating systems that may provide a direct
link into large companies with valuable assets worth stealing. Today,
their methods are less focused on broad and annoying attacks on consumers
and more on targeted attacks on specific individuals in specific
organizations who have the right access levels to high-value assets.
Well-researched social engineering exploits, combined with system
vulnerabilities, make these attacks highly effective, even against smart
and educated individuals. In this discussion we will cover the
landscape of cyber threats to mobile devices, attacker motivations and
steps you can take to protect your mobile endpoint.
