The only international conference on Mobile Security; one of the most talked about challenges facing the industry today The exponential growth in the use of smartphones and wireless devices coupled with the proliferation of data-rich 3G content and applications from a wide variety of sources is leading to an ever-rising threat to the security of mobile networks, phone users and sensitive data transmitted over the air. Unfortunately for those charged with maintaining that security there is no neatly packaged solution. Open platforms such as Symbian, Palm OS, Microsoft Smartphone OS and Linux are increasingly popular because of their ability to provide hugely increased functionality for the new generation of mobile phones, but they also make ideal targets for viruses, worms and hacking attacks. To help you meet this challenge Informa Telecoms and Media is pleased to present the first European conference focusing solely of the new generation of security threats facing mobile operators, handset manufacturers and their users. Bringing together experts from operators, equipment manufacturers, solutions providers and industry bodies this intensive event will give you the first hand knowledge and insights you need to make an accurate assessment of the threat and provide the tools and expertise you need to mount an effective response.
A comprehensive agenda covering all aspects of Mobile Security Since Cabir – the first mobile phone virus – was released in June 2004, there have been over 50 mobile viruses identified and new viruses in multiple variants and combinations are appearing almost weekly: Mobile security may have advanced it recent years but the advances have been matched by an increase in the number and sophistication of malicious attacks. This conference is your opportunity to get ahead in the endless game of catch-up. In two information packed days we will critically examine the key issues facing security professionals in the mobile world. Take This Opportunity To: Quantify the scale and seriousness of security threats from viruses, malware, hackers and criminal attack Develop pro-active strategies to pinpoint and neutralise security vulnerabilities before they are exploited Build a compelling business case for robust security solutions Meet the security challenges posed by the move to 3G Ensure a seamless security environment when moving between cellular networks and wireless LANs	An essential event for mobile operators, equipment manufacturers and solutions providers seeking to: Identify and control security risks to mobile networks, content and handsets Quantify the seriousness of the threat from mobile viruses, worms and Trojans Protect m-commerce products and services from criminal and fraudulent attack Optimise the effectiveness of new handset technology in ensuring mobile security Build partnerships between operators, manufacturers and content providers to ensure maximum levels of security Ensure a seamless security interface between 3G cellular networks and wireless LANs Manage the increased security risks resulting from the migration from 2G to 3G
