摘要:The mobile phones are now almost essential for most of us especially for school, college universitystudents. This is because the mobile devices enable an user to access a large variety of ubiquitous services. In recentyears, the availability of these ubiquitous and mobile services has significantly increased due to the different form ofconnectivities provided by mobile devices, such as GSM, GPRS, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Generally, smartphone userscan program any application which is customized for their needs. However, to provide these customized services,smartphone needs more private information and this can cause security vulnerabilities, thereby representing an idealtarget for black hats. As the number of vulnerabilities and, hence, of attacks increase, there has been a correspondingrise of security solutions proposed by researchers. This research which includes the security issues in smartphonesystems are being new and still unexplored in depth. In the present paper the authors aim to provide a structured andcomprehensive overview of the research on security threats and some solutions for smartphone devices.
