Abstract
The amount of digital data produced all over the world is unprecedented, and as it conveys almost all aspects of life it has become more vulnerable than ever. Mobile data security breaches have been making news headlines, from the security breaches suspected in the 2016 US presidency elections to Yahoo's massive 1B account breaches, not to mention the massive security breaches big retailor stores sustained over the past few years. Although experts claim that solutions to combat such breaches are being developed, breaches continue to multiply. In this study, we analyze recent mobile data breaches and describe their major attack surfaces. Based on the insights we obtained from our study, we provide a set of recommendations to help prevent mobile data breaches from happening in the first place, rather than simply react to its aftermath, when it is already too late.
