Security Renaissance

Promoting the art and mindset of information security

Ren - ais - sance:

(lowercase) a renewal of life, vigor, interest, etc.; rebirth; revival: a moral renaissance

I am currently pursuing a Master’s Degree in Information Assurance (MSIA) through Norwich University and would like to share one of the papers that I prepared for last semester.  The paper sums up quite a bit of research on mobile malware, its history, and what the future holds.  In addition, I intend to make this a “living document;” so there should be periodic updates.

Those who have been actively studying mobile malware for awhile will probably not see much new information – but I believe that this paper does a decent job unifying a lot of disparate information.

Here is a link to the PDF copy (mobilemalware.pdf).  Feedback (both positive and negative) is always welcome.  Send any comments to SecurityRenaissance [at] gmail [dot] com.

Also – I’m considering posting a few other papers on my site.  To that end, I will be creating a “resources” section and will post an update when it is available.
