Episode notes

Why your smartphone knows more about you than you think it does Free e-book: The 7 success factors of software testing. 25 years of project experience in one 33-page workbook, now also in English Get it for free "Attackers know what apps we are working with, we are using, and they take advantage of it." - Bartosz Czernic-Goławski In this episode, I talk with Bartosz Czernic-Goławski, a penetration testing and cybersecurity expert, about how mobile security has evolved from Nokia's indestructible brick phones to today's pocket-sized computers. We trace the journey from analog networks that anyone could eavesdrop on to modern smartphones that demand excessive permissions and collect sensor data every second. Bartosz reveals how attackers use overlay attacks to steal banking credentials, why iOS users aren't as secure as they think, and what phone freaks in the 1980s can teach us about today's vulnerabilities. Bartosz Czernic-Goławski is a non-functional tester with six years of professional experience, currently working at Pentacomp as a security auditor and penetration tester.
