As the year comes to an end we summarize our learnings and look forward to new challenges in 2011. Some thing we believe will important issues in 2011 are:
Mobile Malware and the removal of it
The propagation of tablets and smartphones will very soon create a big enough platform that malware makers will start to target it. Also many people want to use their private tablets in company networks and this will post a further threat.
Social networks
Some companies encourage the use of social networks and some ban it. We feel that social networks can be a great way to communicate, but the potential to spread malware and other unwanted applications is very big. How to handle this on a corporate and private level will certainly be a big issue in 2011.
On a personal note
This also relates to a previous blogpost. USB-keys now are so small with such a big capacity that they look like normal keys and can fit 4GB data or more. The volume of data that can be transported and the potential accompanying threats they can contain can cripple entire networks.
2011 will be an interesting year in computer security.
