AVG Technologies:
WHAT: | Panel debate: Consumer Mobility and Privacy: Monetization without Alienation |
- There are now more mobile-connected devices than people on earth. This creates an incredible opportunity for vendors and service companies, but at what cost?
- Everywhere we look, companies are tracking our whereabouts through the multiple devices we use to access the Internet, but at what point will consumers turn off?
- This debate will look at whether consumers are taking control when it comes to their online identity, or whether more transparency is necessary to enable consumers to do this.
- Mobile security is a serious threat in business, and AVG suggests many of the same principles should be applied to consumers to stop the wave of mobile breaches every month.
- With children as young as four frequently using mobile devices to access the internet, AVG believes education across multiple generations is necessary to reinforce that device security is as important as locking your front door.
