Internet Security: Intrusion Detection and Prevention in Mobile Systems 
This session will focus on the types of security problems that can occur in 
mobile wirelessly-connected systems, the solutions for known problems, and 
strategies for circumventing these problems in the future.
 
Topics: 
        O       Identification of intrusion mechanisms specific to mobile devices and the 
measures that can be taken to exclude their use.
        O       Recognition of system and network technical vulnerabilities that are 
specific to mobile devices.
        O       Establishing and implementing minimum sets of security requirements 
(standards) in a mobile environment.
        O       Security breach detection and recovery: mechanisms to detect when critical 
data has been altered and knowing when to rollback to recovery data.
        O       Mobile network performance issues related to the use of security measures. 
        O       Software design methods to allow mobile devices to be inherently more 
secure.
        O       Certification of security compliant mobile appliances and how this process 
might affect use of the wireless Internet or Bluetooth networks.
        O       User training and support for maintaining an individual’s part of the 
mobile Internet.
