Re: [SC-L] SearchSecurity: Mobile Security = Software Security

Hi Gary,

I agree with everything you write in the article (although I was a bit 
peeved at having to register to read it...). It ties nicely in with a 
related topic that is being discussed a lot recently: The danger of QR 
codes, where people argue that you shouldn't scan QR codes with your 
smartphone, since you don't know where they take you, and you might get 
infected with something (as allegedly carried out by Th3 J35t3r a few 
months back). Again, this is discussing the wrong problem - why are we 
accepting to use smartphone browsers that fall over at the merest whiff 
of an attack?

hi sc-l,

In April, my monthly [in]security column moved over to SearchSecurity 
(TechTarget).  This month's installation appears in Information Security 
magazine as well as on the usual websites.

Because of all of the great work Cigital has done in mobile security, there was 
plenty of fodder to draw from for a pithy article on mobile security.  Take 
home message?  Build security in!  Every software security Touchpoint is 
relevant and useful when it comes to mobile security.

Have a read, and pass it on.  Pile on the hits:

hi martin,

Great to see you in Athens this week.  Sorry about the registration thing.
 As an author, I get very little say in the matter.  I hope you registered
as Mickey Mouse or Bill Gates.
