Final counter-measure will be about monitoring network traffic.

Now this is very hard to prevent.

Why.

Because when someone is using application like display it or network monitor or this kind of application

he's not targeting your mobile phone or your tablet or your Android device.

He's targeting the traffic so you may have all kinds of protection on your device.

But still he will be able to manipulate the traffic and intercept the traffic.

So this specific attack cannot be prevented by installing antivirus from your computer or any kind of

protection.

But there is some best practice that you can follow and it will actually secure your traffic and it

will secure your device as well.

The main and most important point is that I need to clarify which is the public wife right now and I'm

talking about Puplick wife I do not just mean free Wi-Fi but any public Wi-Fi.

So you are sitting in a restaurant and they have a wife and they have a passport and they will give

you a pass.

Any other user connected to the same access point he can.

He will be able to do this attack using this kind of application.

Yes play it or network monitoring or any kind of sniffing tools.

So maybe you have someone sitting on the same place connected to the same network because after all

yes it has a password.

But any customer of any customer in this place has the right to have the password.

And if you connect to the same network you will be able to sniff for the network and capture people

password and manipulate them.

Free Wi-Fi is even worse because you know it's not.

No password is needed.

You may be near of an airport or near a restaurant that has a free Wi-Fi and you can connect from your

car and start sniffing people traffic.

So what I'm saying here is that the main protection or the main countermeasure related to network traffic

it's to prevent using the public Wi-Fi.

So if you have to do something use you from your by or do not connect to public Wi-Fi.

Even if it has a password because they don't have a control on the password any customer to this public

place could be a coffee shop or restaurant has a right to get a pass.

And it's just a small application to be installed on your mobile and I believe you saw that small application

free.

You install it and then you'll be able to capture all people traffic.

So be aware of source public life and in general

Android platform became more and more popular right now and people keep moving from computer to smartphone

and tablet and so on and whatever that attack we explain during this lecture a few months and then we're

going to see as part of that and so on.

So my final recommendation for you is to follow up what is new because every day there is something

related to a new threat or a new risk or a new vulnerability.

And you can do that simply I don't you to be an expert in this area but if you go to websites like explorative

which we use Huling discourse and search for Android you'll see what's new or if you go to security

folks that can.

But this is maybe more technical but there is a website that suggests that you're registered Sifry Web

site.

It's called security news and you can create a free account is a good thing about that is that whenever

something shows up an Android tablet you or Apple was vulnerable to announcing it will send you a notification

so you'll be aware of what is new.

Recently there was a vulnerability talking about a vulnerability that is talking about a message coming

to Android.

Someone can send you a malicious message and you don't even have to open it just by receiving the message.

You will get compromised.

I'm working on a lecture related to that but I'm showing you that you know everything there is something

new.

So my final suggestion or my final recommendation is to be updated registered on such Web site information

security security news or security weak or security focus.

They have a newsletter service for free and you get to know what is new in Android vulnerability and

Android which is.
