Earlier this week Apple announced their new line up of iPhones<\/a>. \u00a0The iPhone 5c is a new model catering to smartphone users on a budget, while the iPhone 5s is their newest flagship product. \u00a0The iPhone 5s features a new fingerprint sensor known as \u201cTouch ID\u201d \u00a0designed to provide access to your new iPhone 5s with the touch of a finger versus a four digit passcode.<\/p>\n

Mobile Security \u00a0Concerns<\/h2>\n

According to research by the Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA) <\/a>mobile device theft or loss is a top concern among IT professionals and small business owners. \u00a0CompTIA research also indicates that requiring a pass code to unlock a mobile device passcode is the most utilized defense according to 76% of those surveyed. \u00a0But is a four digit passcode enough?<\/p>\n

Apple \u201cTouch ID\u201d improves \u00a0Mobile Security<\/h2>\n

Biometrics are far from perfect however, Apple Touch ID is expected to increase mobile security over a four digit pass code. \u00a0Apple\u2019s four digit passcode is limited to 10,000 combinations and can be cracked by an expert in under six minutes. \u00a0Because some are concerned that Apple Touch ID stores fingerprints on its\u2019 new A7 processor Apple will continue to provide the four digit pass code option for those who choose not use use Apple Touch ID.<\/p>\n

Other Mobile Security Concerns<\/h2>\n

Through cloud sharing applications, Social Media, Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) adoption and other mobility trends, mobile devices can create a hole in your company\u2019s IT security architecture. \u00a0Access to corporate applications and their data, privacy information and commingling of personal and company assets add to the mobile security challenge. \u00a0Mobile devices are the target of mobile threats including: malware, viruses and phishing schemes. \u00a0Because of the rapid adoption of smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices, mobile security is an important issue for businesses today.<\/p>\n

Mitigating Mobile Security Risks<\/h2>\n

Companies are reaping the improved productivity, connectivity and communications by adopting a mobile device strategy within their business. \u00a0To mitigate security risks, it is important to have a mobile device policy and mobile device plan within your company. \u00a0This includes mobile lifecycle management, mobile application policies, mobile accepted use policies and mobile security training for your employees. \u00a0If you use mobile devices within your company (as most companies do) ensure you are doing so in a secure manner by having your IT service professional review your mobile security practices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
