Wandera’s 2017 Mobile Leak Report found more than 200 mobile websites and apps leaking personally identifiable information across a range of categories – including those that are essential for work.

Read the 2017 Mobile Leak Report to see which types of apps present the highest risk to your sensitive corporate data.
Mobile is indisputably the new frontier for cyber threats, as adoption of corporate mobility continues to grow, so too does the number of attacks. Businesses have become increasingly exposed to new threats, vulnerabilities and data leaks.
