HOW MOBILE MALWARE COMPROMISES YOUR SECURE CONTAINERS AND ENTERPRISE CONTENT

Check Point: How Mobile Malware Compromises Your Secure Containers and Enterprise Content | White Paper MORE ON BREAKING SECURE CONTAINERS: ANDROID On Android, in particular, there are other means of breaking into the secure container - without exploiting the device with a root vulnerability. The reason is that Android allows the installation of alternative keyboards as well as applications that take screenshots. An attacker can embed malicious code into these applications, turning these applications into actual keylogging and screen-capturing software. Consequently, any text which the user enters into the secure container –such as emails and documents – becomes privy to the attacker. A more illustrative example is that of Citrix. Mobile malware on a Citrix-supported device can grab all screenshots containing sensitive data and send it on to an attacker-controlled server. CHECK POINT MOBILE SECURITY: MITIGATING THE THREAT OF MOBILE MALWARE Check Point Mobile Security provides a mobile threat management platform that protects corporate data from cyber threats.
