Infographic: 10 mobile security myths exposed

Businesses have been investing heavily in their cybersecurity infrastructure. However, mobile devices and mobile security in most organisations remain an unprotected asset – an easy way in for opportunistic cybercriminals.

As a result, mobile devices are increasingly involved in security breaches.
