Abstract
In present scenario only computer system is not a medium of cyber crime, smart phones and tablets also have become targets for cyber criminals to attack. With the growing use of mobile devices, new mobile applications are developing daily and user download these apps onto their mobile devices from different sites. Attacker may utilize these sites by injecting malicious codes to mobile devices without making people realize that they could have some security risks even though downloading apps from their official sites. Mobile cyber security can be gained by avoiding third party sites to download apps for users. Using verified official tools and platforms is a better way to avoid risks and threats when downloading mobile apps.
