Summary

Mobile terminals especially smartphones are changing people's work and lifestyle. For example, mobile payments are experiencing rapid growth as consumers use mobile terminals as part of their modern dynamic lifestyles; more enterprises support employees accessing enterprise services with personal mobile terminals; etc. However, mobile terminal security is a big challenge for mobile application services as such. For example, users may unknowingly expose their terminals to malware and put sensitive data at risk of data breaches.
