Menlo Security Launches Industry-First Secure Web Gateway (SWG) with an Isolation Core for Mobile Devices | National


MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Mar 10, 2021–

Menlo Security, a leader in cloud security, today announced an industry first by extending its cloud-based Secure Web Gateway (SWG) to include web isolation for mobile devices. This new offering is designed to eliminate the threat of malware and phishing attacks when users are accessing the internet and email from their smartphones and tablets.

Mobile device usage continues to grow in the enterprise and the security risk has increased accordingly:

  • Browser vulnerabilities: Web browsers are increasingly being used to access new applications and cloud resources. This makes web browsers a significant target for attackers to exploit and gain a foothold in the enterprise. Recent research published by Menlo Labs showed how 83 percent of browsers were not patched within 30 days by enterprises after a Chrome update. Because mobile browsers are updated less frequently than desktop browsers, Menlo Labs anticipates the same problem with mobile devices. Two recent bugs fixed by Apple and Google on their web browsers that were actively exploited in the wild are leading indicators of the increasing focus on mobile browsers.
  • Phishing: According to industry research1, the surge in remote work has increased mobile phishing attacks by 37 percent globally and 66 percent in North America alone. The report found that unmitigated mobile phishing threats could cost organizations with 10,000 mobile devices as much as $35 million per incident, and up to $150 million for organizations with 50,000 mobile devices.
  • Malicious document download: Malicious file downloads on mobile devices are another area of risk. File-based threats are occurring with greater frequency and higher success rates as threat actors have continued to hone and adapt their social engineering and spear phishing skills to fit today’s trends, including the use of mobile browsers. Consider that hundreds of millions of users are now working remotely and relying on Software as a Service (SaaS) platforms and rich web apps to improve mobility and productivity. As a result, mission-critical files and documents increasingly live outside the corporate firewall,…

Many Android apps still use a vulnerable Google Play Core library version


Google has always advertised Google Play Store not only as the Android app store but also as a trustworthy and secure source of apps. That security, however, is only as strong as Google Play services itself and when the code behind that becomes open to security exploits, the house can easily come crumbling down. Unfortunately, while Google has already plugged up a recent security hole in its Google Play Core Library, app developers aren’t doing their part and putting their own apps and their users at risk.

The Google Play Core Library, as the name implies, is one of the most basic and most fundamental components of Google’s mobile services that Android apps can use to make developers’ and users’ lives easier. It provides functionalities like downloading additional languages, assets, or features without having to update the app itself from Google Play Store. Pretty much all Android apps in the Play Store make use of these functions, making the Core Library a critical part of any Android app.

Unfortunately, a severe flaw in the Core Library took advantage of that functionality in order to make the library actually execute malicious code. Check Point Research goes into detail about how the exploit works and it is a pretty frightening vulnerability if left unaddressed. Fortunately, Google already patched the Play Core Library last April before the vulnerability was publicly disclosed in August.

Rather than end on that good note, however, the security researchers warn that app developers still haven’t updated to this most recent version of the Google Play Core Library. Unlike server-side fixes where Google does all the work on its end, this kind of fix has to be applied by app developers on their own by updating their apps to use the fixed version of the library. By its last count, they estimate 13% of apps on the Google Play Store haven’t yet.

This basically means that these apps and users are still vulnerable to this security flaw that is now known by security experts and hackers alike. While a few have responded to Check Point’s report and…
