Abstract

Smart phones, their operating systems and security characteristics have rapidly evolved as has the reliance upon them by organizations to conduct business. The unusual mix of personal and business use for smart phones as well as their unique combination of capabilities creates a number of challenges to managing their risk. This paper explores the types and nature of threats to the organization from the use of smart phones along with controls, available security software and tools. The current state of corporate smart phone security programs and policies is examined. Smart phone security policy considerations are discussed and recommendations are made for building a smart phone security program.
