MWC often gladdens our heart with lots of visitors and participants who care much about security and that is quite natural taking into account that the event is held by GSMA<\/a> Association. This year was not an exception with security being one of the main themes at Mobile World Congress 2015. Let\u2019s see what main trends Kaspersky Lab identified at the event.<\/p>\n

Trend #1: Security in the IoT<\/h3>\n

On Kaspersky Daily we\u2019ve regularly written<\/a> about how unexpectedly vulnerable connected devices can be just because too many things are going to be connected: from refrigerators, coffee machines, TVs and microwaves to fitness bands and other wearable devices and even drones. This flood of connected appliances can lead to unexpected consequences. Unfortunately, the majority of manufacturers and developers have very little experience in the field of IoT security<\/a>.<\/p>\n
