More and more users and companies are using smartphones for communication, but also for planning and organizing the work and private life of their users. Within companies, these technologies lead to profound changes in the organization of information systems and have therefore become a source of new risks. Indeed, smartphones are increasingly collecting and compiling sensitive information that needs to be controlled for access to protect user privacy and corporate intellectual property.

All smartphones as computers are preferred targets. This is because these devices contain family photos, pet pictures, passwords, and more. For attackers, these items are a digital passport that allows them to access everything they need to know about a person. Because of this, attacks on mobile devices are on the rise.
