ANALYST NOTE"Real mobile threats are here, and the explosive growth we forecast for the mobile device security software market comes from the ever-expanding population of consumer and enterprise users looking to apply a consistent security policy to devices, combat a massive volume of threats -- particularly aimed at Android devices -- and deal with rogue apps and the emergence of revenue-generating threats like screenlockers," says Jeff Wilson, principal analyst for security at Infonetics Research. Wilson adds: "We're also watching the convergence of mobile device management, mobility, SSL VPN, and pure mobile device security because this union has a significant impact on the long-term opportunity for selling mobile security clients."
