A review on a post on Internet Security from My E-Commerce blog

After viewing the blog, I feel so curious to know more about mobile Malware. It has a rapidly growth of mobile Malware recently, the primary reasons which are as below:
· The price of phone continues to drop and vendor involved in production.

· Virus writer is allowed to gain a deep understanding of the operating system.

· Mobile phone users tend to save a great deal of private data into their devices, so there is a potential financial gain from identity theft or misappropriation of credit card information.

· Windows Mobile and Win32 are very similar, so it is easy for Win32 malware author to transition to mobile malware.

There are many ways to prevent of mobile Malware except of those in the article.
· The best way to prevent mobile from Malware attacks is to install anti-virus and anti-Malware tools. Such as, a combination of both PC-based anti-virus software and mobile anti-virus software, it is the most effective solution to prevent infection than products that only detect or clean viruses.

· Off the WI-FI and Bluetooth when in outdoors, because these function are easier to exploit for sending malicious code or viruses.

· Make a frequent back up of data stored on mobile services, as contact lists are vitally important, then if the mobile device had been infected, so we can recover the default setting to clean the system.
