The document discusses various aspects of Android security. It covers kernel security features like process isolation and permissions. It describes how the application sandbox isolates apps and assigns unique IDs. It also discusses system security mechanisms like encryption, verified boot, and updates. Common Android vulnerabilities are outlined like rooting, repackaging apps, update attacks, and drive-by downloads.
How BYOD Will Shape Wireless Network Security in 2012
This document discusses how bring your own device (BYOD) policies will impact wireless network security in 2012. It notes that allowing personal smartphones to connect to enterprise networks can introduce intrusion and data leakage threats from malware and unsecured apps. Common security practices like MAC address filtering and mobile device management are limited in addressing threats from personal devices. The document argues that wireless intrusion prevention systems (WIPS) can automatically detect and block unauthorized personal devices on the network through device fingerprinting and policy enforcement, while still providing protection from traditional wireless attacks. WIPS uses sensors to identify approved and unapproved devices by attributes like type, name, MAC address and location to enforce security policies across the wireless network.
Top 6-Security-Threats-on-iOS
This document outlines the top 6 cyber security threats facing iOS devices: 1) iOS surveillance and mobile remote access trojans, 2) fake iOS enterprise or developer certificates, 3) malicious iOS profiles, 4) WiFi man-in-the-middle attacks, 5) WebKit vulnerabilities, and 6) zero-day attacks. These threats allow attackers to gain remote access to devices, install unapproved apps, reroute device traffic, exploit browser flaws, and take advantage of unknown vulnerabilities. Traditional antivirus solutions are inadequate against many of these threats, so solutions are needed that can detect suspicious app, device, and network activity to identify and prevent both known and unknown attacks.

Location recce
Luke Janes visited a field at a school on November 14th to scout it as a potential filming location. The field would work for a scene where characters have a conversation. However, the lighting may be too bright at midday, and wind could cause background noise issues. Filming on a calm, overcast day would help address these concerns. There is also a risk of actors or equipment slipping on wet grass or in holes, so filming needs to occur when the ground is dry. With the right weather conditions, the field could serve as a suitable location.

Malware Inc is a group of 6 students who developed proof-of-concept malware applications targeting popular platforms to better understand security risks. They created apps that could access private user data like passwords, profiles, and keystrokes without permission for Google App Engine, Facebook, Firefox, Google Chrome, Android, and iOS. While the apps used allowed APIs, they highlighted how the "feeling of security" from legitimate sources can be exploited. The student concluded more proactive development and auditing tools are needed to reliably audit apps before installation and prevent malware.
Symantec Code Signing (CH)
Two trends make code signing more important than ever: the explosion of consumer applications for mobile and desktop devices and the proliferation of malware.
Cybercriminals recognise this as an opportunity and seek to trick us into installing malicious software (malware). Mobile network providers and software publishers increasingly require code signing from a trusted Certificate Authority (CA) before accepting code for distribution.
