Report Finds Threat of Mobile Malware Overhyped in the U.S.
Recent findings show we may not need to worry about mobile malware as much as we do.
Damballa, a company focusing on threat detection and containment, has today unveiled new research into the severity of mobile malware, which claims the threat has been greatly overhyped in the United States. Damballa monitors nearly 50 percent of all U.S. mobile traffic.
In its first study from spring 2012, Damballa was monitoring approximately 33 percent of U.S. mobile data traffic, and found only 3,492 out of a total of 23 million mobile devices, or 0.015 percent, were contacting domains on the mobile blacklist.
