Case Project 7-2: Summarizing Research
When preparing to develop a new IT project, it is often necessary to perform detailed research to determine what experiences others have had with similar initiatives, what problems were encountered, and what successes can be leveraged. You learn more about security policies in Chapter 13, but in this project you summarize research that would help you prepare to develop a security policy for a mobile device.
For this assignment, read four credible research articles and then write a one- to two paragraph summary of each article. The first two articles are provided for you. Find two additional credible articles that relate to mobile device security and summarize them as well. During the search, keep in mind that the Internet is full of information, but not all of it is credible. For example, white papers published by commercial vendors might be biased toward their own products or solutions. You might find it helpful to consult your school's reference librarian for assistance in locating appropriate sources.
Here are the first two articles for you to summarize:
? Phishing on Mobile Devices (www.cs.berkeley.edu/~daw/papers/mobphish-w2sp11.pdf)
? A Survey of Mobile Malware in the Wild (www.cs.berkeley.edu/~daw/papers/mobilemalspsm11.pdf)
Submit your summaries of the four articles to your instructor.
