Why last year’s mobile defense technology is no longer enough
A year ago, a conversation about the state of the art of mobile threat defense (MTD) would have included the ability to identify attacks across the various threat vectors – apps, networks, vulnerabilities – and, more importantly, the ability to proactively protect sensitive information, wherever it resides. Remarkably, most MTD solutions had not made much headway on the protection front, but eventually, it will be expected of any solution worth consideration.
Meanwhile, the bad guys have continued to launch more creative attacks while even well-meaning users put data at risk every day simply by using their devices the way they were intended – connecting to networks, installing apps, and yes, even occasionally being behind on their security patches.
