Security Vulnerabilities of Mobile Devices in pdf

Goals:

• What makes mobile devices less vulnerable to malware (to the extent that is the case) and Android’s “Verify Apps” security scanner
• Protection provided by sandboxing the apps
• Security (or lack thereof) provided by over-the-air encryption for cellular communications with a Python implementation of A5/1 cipher
• Side-channel attacks on specialized mobile devices
• Examples of side-channel attacks: fault injection attacks and timing attacks
• Python scripts for demonstrating fault injection and timing attacks
• USB devices as a source of deadly malware
• Mobile IP
