Contemporary Research on Identity Theft Techniques used on Smart Devices
Original language description
This paper provides a brief introduction concerning trends in modern security threats using online identities. The paper deals with two major modern-day facts: the first fact is the increasing number of active online smart devices; the second fact deals with economic impacts of identity theft, as shown in long- term studies. Many users save online identities in their smart devices. These devices provide improvements and simplify online activities, but very personal information is necessary to operate some types of online identities, which are then reconstructed from online profiles. Smart devices become the user's online identity, which is necessary to protect. However, smart devices provide only very basic and limited protection functions. If there is no security toolkit installed, it is very difficult to protect a user's online identity and identity theft operations become easier. The attacker only needs access to the victim's smart device. This paper shows techniques for infiltrating a victim's smart device and for stealing private data.
