Cell Phone Spyware and Vulnerabilities Update
In this webinar Dr. Baxley will update you on the latest on the Pegasus Cell Phone Spyware, which affects billions of devices. Dr. Baxley will also review our own research into the variety of Cell Phone Spyware vendors and capabilities. Plus, he will review findings from our recent Cell Phone Spyware survey.

While the news about Pegasus Spyware focused on the individuals whose phones were hacked, the real story is the organizational secrets that were revealed because innocent people carried spy devices (their phones) into classified conversations.

Cell Phone Spyware hit the headlines again recently, with news that Spyware has been found on cell phones used by the US State Dept.

The latest spyware versions send a message to the phone that the user never sees. It arrives with no notification and gives itself its own permission to install the spyware without the user’s knowledge - meaning any employee no matter how loyal or security conscious can be a vehicle for carrying spyware into your most secret facilities and meeting rooms.

This is why enterprises and government agencies must not simply brush this off as a “it couldn’t happen here” scenario. It can happen anywhere! 

Even worse “Turning off your phone” won’t work. Modern cell phones are never really off. They are in different states of hibernation and spyware can wake them up when it wants. What’s the fix? Sadly, the only answer is to keep cell phones out of your most classified meetings, which is where Bastille can help.

PLUS learn how your USB Cable may really be a Spyware device.....
