This presentation will discuss the security of some of the most popular applications running on mainstream mobile platforms (such as Android, iPhone, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile), as well as observations on security issues affecting other mobile devices (such as mobile hot spots). Attendees will gain insight into the tools and methodologies used to explore, reverse engineer, and ultimately discover vulnerabilities, as the speakers will demonstrate man-in-the-middle tools and techniques use to analyze network communications, as well as cover common methodologies for the extraction and analysis of applications installed on mobile platforms.
