Supported mobile operating systems are as follows:

Android2.2, 2.3,3.0, 3.1, 3.2,4.0, 4.1
Android 1.6,2.1
Symbian^ 3 (including Belle And Anna), S60 3rd and 5th Editions

Mobile phone security or Mobile security have become increasingly urgent in the computing mobile. It is of specific concern as it relate to the personal information security now saved on smart-phones.

More and more businesses and users use smart-phones as communication tool but also as a way of planning and organizing their works and personal life. Within the companies, these technologies are effort for profound change in the organizations of information system and therefore they have become the sources of the new risk. Indeed, smart-phones collects and compiles an increasing amounts of sensitive in-formations to which accesses must be controlled to secure the user privacy and the intellectual property of the companies. According to the ABI Research the market of Mobile Security Service will total around $ 2.88 billion till the end of year 2013.

All smart-phones, as computer, are preferred target of attack. These attack exploits weaknesses related to smart-phones that can come from way of communications like MMS, SMS, wifi network, and GSM. There are also attack that exploits the software vulnerabilities from both the operating system and web browser. At Last, there are form of malicious soft wares that rely on the very weak knowledge of middle standard user.

Different-2 securities counter measures are being develop and applied to smart-phones, from the security in the Software different layers to the end users of dissemination of information. There are good practice to be seen at all level, from designs to uses, via the operating systems development, software layer, and down-loadable app.

Challenges of mobile security

Threats

A smart-phone users are exposed to multiple threats when they uses their phones. Just in the previous 2 quarters closing of 2012 the unique mobile numbers threats increased by 262%, according to the Research of ABI . Such threat can interrupt the operations of the smart-phone, and transmit or modify the data of user. For such reason, the application deployed there should guaranteed for integrity and privacy of the information they are handling. In the addition, since few apps could themselves be malware, their activities and functionality are limited (for an example, accessing information of location via GPS, transmitting data on the network, address book, sending the SMS that are charged, etc.)

There are 3 Major milestone for attacker:

• Data: smart-phones are devices for the management of data, therefore they can include the sensitive record like the credit card numbers, private information, authentication information, activity logs (call logs, calendar);
• Identity: smart-phones are customizable highly , so the devices or their content are related with the person of specific reason. For an example, every devices of mobiles can transmitted the in-formations related to the mobile owner phone contract, and an attacker can like to theft the identity of the owner of a smart-phone to perform another offense;
• Availability: by attacking on smart-phone we can limited the access to that and strip the owner of the services..

The main sources of such attack is the same actor found in the non mobile space of computing:

• Professionals- whether military or commercial, who focuses on the these target mentioned as above. They theft sensitive records from the common public, as well as under take business enterprise espionage. These will also uses the identities of such attacked to get another attack;
• Thieves who like to earn income through record or identity they have stolen. The theft will attack several peoples to increase their possible earning;
• Black hat hackers who are specialist attacks as per availability. Their aim is to create viruses, and damage to the devices. In such cases, hacker has an interest in t hefting the records from device.

• Grey hat hackers who reveals the vulnerabilities. Their aim is to expose vulnerability of the devices. Grey hat hacker don't desire on destroying the devices or data stealing.

Consequences

When a smart-phones are infected by an attacker, the attacker can attempt several things:

• The attacker can act upon the smart-phone like a zombie machines, that is to say, machines with which the attackers can communicates and send command which will use to send the unsolicited message or spam via email or sms.
• The attackers can simple make pressure on the smart-phone to make phone calls. For example, we can use API (library that includes the basic function is not available in the smart-phone) PhoneMakeCall by Microsoft, which collect the numbers of telephone from any source like as yellow pages, and then need to call them. But the attackers can also use such ways to call such types of paid service, as a output in a charges to the owner of the smart-phone. It will be also very dangerous because the smart-phone could call emergency service and thus disrupt that service;
• A adjusted smart-phone can record the conversation between the users and another and sending them to a third party. This can cause user privacy and industrial security problems;
• An attackers can also steal the identity of user, assume your identity (with a copy of the telephone, sim, etc.), and thus owner impersonate. This creates the security concern in countries where smart-phones can be used to orders place, view bank account or are used as an identity card;
• The attackers can decrease the secondary of the smart-phone, by dis-charging the battery. For example, we can launch applications that will run non stop on the smart-phone processors, need a high energy and draining the battery. One main thing is that separates computing the mobile from traditional desktop PC's is its limited execution power. Ross Anderson and Frank Stajano first explained such forms of attacks, calling it an attacks of "battery fatigue" or "sleep deprivation torture";
• The attackers can forbid the operations and / or begining of the smart-phone by making it unusable. These attacks can either delete the boot script, resulting in a phones with out a functioning the OS, or editing definite file to make it unusable (e.g. a scripts that launches at start-up that forces the smart-phone to re-start) or even embed a start-up applications that would discharge the battery;
• The attackers can take off the private (music, photos, videos, etc.) or paid record (contacts, notes, calendars) of the users.
