The surge in online/mobile applications continues to grow, with 100 billion apps downloaded in a single year for the first time last year. Unfortunately, this was matched by a 48% increase in cyberattacks. Many apps are developed with monetisation as the main driver, rather than security, and AI chatbots are increasingly integrated into an array of apps. Big Tech is at the forefront of latest developments, with AI virtual assistants like Siri, Cortana and Alexa now commonplace. Cyber threats are especially prevalent with remote connections led by virtual assistants, with fraudsters stealing £2,300 from victims every minute. It is important to check the security of apps to protect an organisation’s precious data.
