Holistic Security Model for Mobile Database in Nigeria
Journal Title: American journal of Engineering Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
Due to proliferation on the usage of mobile computing devices such as mobile phones, smart phones, Tablet PCs and Portable Digital Assistant (PDA) in Nigeria and world over, it is expected that these light-weight, powerful, low-cost computing devices will pave way for data-driven applications in mobile environments. These portal mobile devices can be connected to corporate database and application servers so that application processing can take place at any time and from anywhere. This can throw up a lot of security challenges. Hackers, malicious programs and rival firms can penetrate the corporate servers through various security holes or vulnerabilities. This paper examines these security holes that can emanate from three major windows- the mobile device, the mobile network and the corporate database server and critically x-rays various solutions that can ward them off in order to protect critical data from attack, eavesdropping, disruption, destruction and modification. This paper finally proposes a holistic security model to protect corporate mobile database in Nigeria. Keywords:
