Mobile Security News Update February 2011 part 2

As I wrote in my last blog entry last week I attended the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Over all it was quite interesting, meeting old friends and people so far I knew only through email.

I also had a nice chat with Elinor Mills from CNET about Visa's NFC payment stuff at the Visa booth at MWC. Her article is here: Mobile phone e-wallets get closer to reality

In two weeks Nico and I am going to speak at CanSecWest about our feature phone SMS research. I'm really looking forward to Vancouver again.

Conferences:
    BlackHat Europe (Barcelone): Nitesh Dhanjani talks about New Age Attacks Against Apple's iOS (and Countermeasures)

    CanSecWest: iPhone and iPad Hacking by Ilja van Sprundel, IOActive, Project Ubertooth: Building a Better Bluetooth Adapter by Michael Ossmann, U.S. Department of Commerce and Great Scott Gadgets and Nico and myself on SMS-o-Death.

Here a collection of some ShmooCon 2011 video recordings.
