Cell Phones: Top 5 Stupid Things Users Do
Mobile devices can raise risk management, privacy and security issues for individuals and companies alike. Even today's "simple" cell phones can pose a significant threat.
Mobile devices are changing the way we all live, work and play. Most of us wouldn't think of leaving home without our mobile devices, and more of us are using mobile devices—whether they're our personal devices or issued by our employer—for work every day, even if it's just to check our email when we're not in the office. We need to start treating our mobile devices in much the same way as we treat our laptop computers. Implementing security solutions and policies, as well as remote management support for all mobile workers—whether they're using personal or company-issued devices—are big steps in the right direction toward protecting these increasingly powerful devices and the critical data on them.
