Is mobile malware a lot of fuss over nothing?

New report from Verizon suggests smartphone malware is mostly 'adnoyance' - real dangers are still in desktop

Mobile malware may be widespread, but it's unlikely to be the source of disastrous data breaches such as the Sony hack any time soon, according to international telecoms firm Verizon.

"We feel safe saying that while a major carrier is looking for and monitoring the security of mobile devices on its network, data breaches involving mobile devices should not be in any top-whatever list," the company writes.
