Because of their small, portable nature, PDAs present a unique security dilemma. This is the essential reference for PSA technicians and IT professionals who need to understand and solve this challenge. Written by a security expert, the book explores PDA security issues and details what must be done to establish privacy in the hand-held medium. It: covers the vast variety of devices available, including Palm, PocketPC, and RIM devices; includes foreword by Rebecca Bace, internationally recognized intrusion detection and network security specialist; includes a case study guide - "PDA Defense - Palm's Choice for Enterprise"; explains why handheld security is largely about OS (Operating Systems); explores hacking problems; answers the questions - when does a handheld become an IT problem and what is a measured IT response?
