Veracode, Inc. announced that MobileIron will integrate Veracode's mobile application reputation capabilities in the company's mobile device management (MDM) and mobile application management (MAM) solutions. The integrated solution will protect enterprises and app users from vulnerable, risky and malicious mobile applications. Through this partnership, Veracode and MobileIron are informing MDM capabilities with risk ratings and security intelligence derived from Veracode's mobile app analysis offerings. This provides organizations visibility into the data loss and privacy risks posed by mobile applications and enables them to take action to protect their employee and corporate information. The combined solution will leverage Veracode's application security expertise to detect which mobile apps are risky and MobileIron's mobile management controls to enforce corporate mobility and security policies.

Veracode, Inc. released the 'Connected Cars: Too smart for their own good” infographic, which maps out the IT security risks of features in connected cars. In an effort to provide new conveniences as well to meet physical security standards, many new consumer vehicles are offering more complex features. The introduction of features such as remote, self-diagnostics, satellite radios and built-in GPS systems, as well as features like keyless entry and ignition becoming common place, create a luxurious driving experience. However, these features which use integrated telecommunication and informatics systems called 'telematics', can also introduce IT security. The Self Destruct Virus starts a 60-second countdown that ends with the virus turning off headlights, locks the doors, shuts down the engine and disables the brakes. The infographic will also help car manufactures and consumers navigate risks so they can improve the security of connected vehicles through the use of tools such as the Vendor Application Security Testing (VAST) program.
