Enterprises face growing threats from malicious Wi-Fi hotspots and millions of apps on employee-owned devices. These apps can include malware and “riskware” – apps that might not be overtly malicious but exhibit behavior that puts enterprise data at risk. Enterprises face growing threats from malicious Wi-Fi hotspots and millions of apps on employee-owned devices. These apps can include malware and “riskware” – apps that might not be overtly malicious but exhibit behavior that puts enterprise data at risk. Together, these threats expose enterprise users to data leakage, credential theft, and the exfiltration of private information that can be used to target specific employees in advanced attacks. Enterprise users casually access Wi-Fi hotspots and give these riskware apps sweeping permissions, not realizing that their personal and corporate data may be sent to remote servers and advertising networks all over the world, where it can be mined by cyber criminals.
