Mobile Security News Update March 2011 part 2

The BlackBerry pwnage seems to cause some trouble as RIM seems to not tell the truth (1 2) in their advisory. Lets see what happens here.

Finally the first Android mod with encrypted storage was released by Whisper Systems. This is really really cool. Now they just need to support more Android devices besides the Nexus S. But moxie told me they are adding support for more soon :-)

For those of you interested in NFC there are two interesting papers from this years NFC Conference 1) Security Vulnerabilities of the NDEF Signature Record Type 2) Practical Attacks on NFC Enabled Cell Phones.
