Everyone is using mobile these days, from the registration form at your doctor’s office to the cable technician in the field to the mom and pop shop at the farmer’s market. While mobile has definitely opened up a world of possibilities for large and small businesses alike, it’s also opened those businesses up to increased security threats.
Fun fact: Gartner predicts that by 2017, 75% of mobile security breaches will be because of app misconfiguration.
Not because of misuse by Frank in accounting or that Tumblr Julie in marketing was browsing on her iPhone, but because of misconfiguration. In other words: the future of mobile app security rests in developers’ hands.
