Introduction to Mobile Hacking

Mobile hacking makes perfect sense because of the rise of smartphone and other mobile devices for online transactions and connecting with others. Since mobile devices are hubs of personal information that are easier to access compared to personal computers, they are among the most vulnerable devices for hackers.  

Why should you hack mobile devices? Different types of mobile device hacks allow you to do the following:

   1. Know the location of a target through installed GPS service or cell ID tracking. 

   2. Access emails and record phone conversations 

   3. Know target’s internet browsing behavior 

   4. View all contents stored in the device, including photos 

   5. Send remote instructions to the mobile device 

   6. Use it to send spoofed messages or calls
