With the rapid expansion of broadband wireless, end-users increasingly rely upon handheld
devices for almost all daily living activities. Fourth generation (4G) cellular LTE in particular
represents a unique opportunity/challenge as device attacks are growing at a rapid rate, exposing
vulnerabilities that must be addressed. Our research indicates that Android malware in particular
will grow rapidly and will be considered most vulnerable OS for LTE.
This research is most reading for anyone involved in LTE network planning, device procurement,
and/or application development and management. This report includes extensive LTE Security
Market forecasting for the period 2013 - 2018. The report complements Mind Commerce
research in LTE device, subscriptions, and application market analysis as well as security threats
for specific applications such as mobile games.
