Neither the iPhone will not be safe from the malware!

Recent research about the security of smart phones have discovered opportunities for

contamination of equipment working on Android operating system, so as

results of research conducted by the company Bit9, in twelve countries in

most uncertain of mobile devices are just working in the

Google’s mobile operating.

The reason for this is primarily the principle of open code system, so the site The

Next Web developer say that they have only one account and license to publish

applications in the Android Market, so that almost anyone can publish “applications that

have the potential to be dangerous “in the Market.

On the other hand, Apple is known for closed code for “total control” of App

Given that an increasing number of people greater its cell

increasingly as electronic portfolio and e-banking (since some users

Store up to problems can arise during use of the services that are not

applications relating to the Apple store, which he could not prevent

the company.

Although many people believe that security companies are abound with stories about his

security weaknesses of smart phones – because they want to sell us

security software, smartphones are becoming obviously more attractive to hackers and

cyber criminals and in the future we can expect more and larger attacks, with

which case it will be vulnerable to all mobile platforms.
