PhantomLance - A Story of Statecraft, Software Espionage, Security Mismanagement and APT32
Likely the most significant exposé of retail software security mismanagement this fiscal year - Wired New York-based Senior Writer Andy Greenberg's 'How Spies Snuck Malware Into the Google Play Store -- Again' is making the rounds here at Casa Infosec. It's the Must Read for this week, and possibly the entire month {except for - maybe - this superb piece of security journalism - another Andy Greenberg effort, take a gander, if you will}.
"GOOGLE'S PLAY STORE for Android apps has never had a reputation for the strictest protections from malware. Shady adware and even banking trojans have managed over the years to repeatedly defy Google's security checks." - via Wired writer Andy Greenberg
