Mobile Security: There is Light at the End of the Tunnel

New technology is hitting the open market for consumers concerned about their mobile privacy. Two products in particular are leading the way. Blackphone is a device developed by Android that allows users to send encrypted texts and calls to one another. Signal, an app available for download on iPhones, also works with encrypted communication. Some credit the surge in this type of technology to the scandal involving former NSA contractor Edward Snowden. But one only needs to look at the headlines to see that the need for security from cybercrime is very real and urgent. Regardless of what is fueling these developments, it is impossible to deny that there is a change in the way people are developing, distributing, purchasing and using secure tech devices. Stay ahead of the game, and find out the best ways to keep mobile devices secure. http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/08/05/us-cybersecurity-hackers-phones-idUSKBN0G527220140805
