Skype users in
Android should be
extra vigilant. Based
on recent findings,
VoIP and Video Chat
application is
vulnerable to
malicious programs
that can be
compromised to
steal users' personal
data.
Just imagine if all
personal data such
as numbers and
credit card account
passwords stored in
Android phone
stolen, when opening
Skype.
As quoted from
Engadget, Sunday
(4/17/2011), it turns
out malicious
programs that
infiltrate through the
chat log files of
Skype. Known
malicious programs
that infiltrate has
SQLite3 database
file.
Hopefully Skype
parties immediately
close the 'hole' is, by
encrypting the file,
so as not to be
accessible to some
people. With the
increasing number of
users of Android, it
seems more and
more cyber criminals
who target.
