Identity theft and fraud has gained a foothold on the fixed internet as well as areas of hard copy information. Visiongain believes that this will migrate onto the mobile platform.
Key players in the mobile industry involved in mobile content, the mobile web and protecting mobile subscribers need to gain a thorough understanding of a crime that is continuously evolving and will migrate onto the mobile platform. The mobile phone has become intrinsically linked with the mobile web and as such has heightened the security risks associated with identity fraud.
Traditional mobile content, such as voice and SMS messaging are not immune from this threat. While ID fraud in general is believed to be falling visiongain believes that its presence on the mobile phone will grow, and the mobile industry will need to be aware of the dangers presented to themselves and their subscribers.
The next generation of mobile subscribers will have a stronger presence on the mobile web, and the next generation of mobile phones will be devices that have the potential to store ever higher amounts of data and information that will be at risk from identity fraudsters.
The mobile web is at risk of being stifled through poor user experience suffered from identity fraud on the mobile web as well as through traditional mobile content. Protection for mobile subscribers will need to be given in order to encourage growth of the mobile platform.
