Hackers Targeting iPhone - MyMobiSafe.com on the way.

Hackers Targeting iPhone - MyMobiSafe.com on the way.
By: Eric Everson, Founder - MyMobiSafe.com

As I’ve said before, when mobile security news happens I am in the loop as the Founder of MyMobiSafe.com. Today you may have noticed a story in the WSJ “Hackers Bypass iPhone Limits” (address below). Given the hype of the iPhone, it is no surprise that it has become the most targeted phone by hackers. Not to mention that it uses an OS X operating system (like the computers) making the coding transitions between the iPhone and the hackers computer essentially seamless.

We have been working on our own security software for iPhone users which could be available as early as 7/15. MyMobiSafe.com stands as the protector of the mobile community and you’d better believe that we have the security interest of iPhone users in mind too. The iPhone is yet to become globally available, yet it is already becoming the most hacker targeted phone on the market. In just a week since its debut, hackers have built a growing list of security vulnerabilities for the new handset.

We are continuing to test our iPhone compatible MyMobiSafe® update and we hope to have it available as early as 7/15 from MyMobiSafe.com. Mobile security is a growing concern for all mobile users, thus at $3.99 per month we aim to be the protection all wireless users can turn to. Keep checking the ZDNet.co.uk Sentry Blog for updates about our upcoming iPhone security updates.

As promised here is the addy for the WJS article:

Note: There are already over 300 articles related to hackers + iPhone available in the Google News.
