Description: On a daily basis we carry laptops, tables, smartphones and all kind of gadgets containing personal and corporate information, and thousands of those devices get lost or stolen. According to the FBI, losses due to laptop theft rise more than $3.5 million in 2005 and in 2011 the NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research reported that thefts of laptops have been on the increase over the last 10 years costing millions in losses every year.
Dozens of security solutions from well-known antivirus houses, hardware vendors, ISV and single developers have popped up over the years to secure all desktops and smartphones platforms claiming to protect our information and even help to recover our devices, but are those claims true?
These solutions cover all major desktops platforms such as Windows, Linux and MacOS, but also plenty of options for Android, iOS and Windows Phones as well. Solutions features vary but most offer remote wiping, GPS tracking, data encryption, SMS activation, sound alarms, camera activation and policy report generation among others.
In this presentation we will present the results of statically and dynamically analyzing dozens of these so-called security solutions and their claims. How easily can a burglar defeat these products? Come and see!
