Complacency about Cyber Security Can Harm Mobile Bingo Players

Ever since the first mobile bingo apps were designed and launched a couple of years back, a wild frenzy has begun, making mobile bingo the fastest growing sector in the world of e-bingo. Over the years, both the novelty and the popularity of this form of online bingo have remained unfazed. If anything, the number of players it attracted during its launch has only gone higher, thanks to the innovations that are being introduced to it ever so often. Every day, mobile bingo is flocked by hordes of players and the reasons behind this phenomenon are not surprising. By giving them the possibility of enjoying a game of bingo wherever they are and whenever they choose, mobile bingo has made the game an inseparable part of the lives of the players. With these easily downloadable apps on their phones, players can choose to
play online bingo
every single time they feel the urge to do so, whether they are at home, commuting to and from work, are stuck in a traffic snarl or are preparing themselves for a long and uninspiring train journey. What is worth taking note of here is that the bonuses and jackpots to be won in this form of bingo are at par with the ones available on site, sometimes even better.

Despite its obvious advantages, mobile bingo is not without its own share of risks. According to a recent survey conducted by internet security bigwigs McAfee, players of this form of bingo are enveloped by a sense of misplaced security when it comes to playing bingo on their phones. According to the results of the survey that was released by McAfee in association with National Cyber-Security Alliance, around 70% smart phone users are under the impression that their mobile phones are out of the reach of hackers and other such elements resorting to cyber crimes. Among all the respondents, a staggering majority confirmed that they had never installed any security features on their mobile phones and had not even resorted to any measures to protect the data on the phones as they considered their phones safe from such cyber threats. The lack of security measures in mobile phones is a complete bother as not only do people stand to lose important data, playing only games like bingo gets cumbersome too.

As is with online bingo sites, mobile bingo apps too require players to part away with sensitive personal information like their banking details. Hackers are on the continuous lookout for a leeway and an unprotected mobile phone is the perfect gateway for them to carry on with their unscrupulous operations. Newer programs are being developed by them on a regular basis to steal data stored on phones. Players of online bingo are at major risk as they might find their profiles hacked and tampered with. As was revealed by the survey, only 26% users said they went through the developer’s policies when in the process of downloading an application. As there have been quite a few instances of malware attacks against phones, it is highly recommended that users thoroughly go through the policies and understand them before downloading any application to maintain premium security.

It is also a common yet extremely harmful practice to store passwords in one’s phones. Studies have revealed that a substantial percentage of the population stores banking and other high risk passwords on their phones, making it easy for anyone to compromises with their account and steal data. It is, thus, advisable not to store such information on unsecured phones and to use strong passwords for all online accounts.

Theft of Mobile Phones $109.93 Theft of mobile phones among undergraduates of Nnamdi Azikiwe University Awka is my M.Sc. project which examined the manner in which phones were stolen among the students of the school. Both the qualitative and the quantitative methods of data collection and analysis were used in the study. The strain theory constituted the theoretical framework. The study found that theft of mobile phones is a regular phenomenon in the school. However, the frequency of theft of mobile phones in the school was observed to be less than alleged in the literature. The study recommended among others value re orientation as panacea to theft of mobile phones in the school.

Mobile Phones and the KeystrokeLevel Model $132.24 The KeystrokeLevel Model gives the time it takes for an expert to do a task errorfree. It does this by using operators that represent keystrokes, mouse movement and presses, the movement of hand between the two, and the the time spent mentally preparing for an operator. While these operators are clearly linked to the desktop, these operators can work on mobile phones as well. We present an open source tool, KLMQt, that can examine events that are delivered to an application and convert them into KeystrokeLevel Model operators. This has the advantage that all that needs to be done is demonstrate the application to get a model, resulting in a savings of time. We include how the tool works along with the details of its implementation. To test the tool, we run it along with other desktop evaluation methods for a couple of mobile phones: the Trolltech Greenphone, the FTC Neo1973, and the Apple iPhone. We find that these evaluation methods show promise for mobile devices and should be pursued further when doing evaluations of applications on mobile phones.

Web Browsing on Mobile Phones $113.11 The increasing importance of the Internet means that a person should be able to access Web services also when not sitting in front of a computer. Technically, it has been possible to access the Internet on a mobile phone since mid1990s, but the mobile browsing experience has often been cumbersome for ordinary people. Understanding the user needs in different use contexts is the key in improving the user experience and thereby popularizing device independent access to Internet. In her dissertation research, Virpi Roto has interviewed users of mobile browsers in several countries, and identified characteristics that should be taken into consideration in order to improve the mobile browsing user experience. In addition to user and use context, all the system components should be taken into account: device, browser, network infrastructure, and web site. A partial outcome of the research is a visualization method called Minimap, which gathered publicity as the first practical way to view large Web pages on a mobile phone. The method has been used in Nokia S60 mobile phones since 2006.

Social Authentication for Mobile Phones $103.56 In this work we present a scheme for automating authentication based on social factors using mobile phones. We test its feasibility by running simulations on an existing dataset. We implement two protocols one based on public keys and the other on hash chains. Then we consider threat scenarios. Computer systems depend on the user being authenticated securely. Usually this involves a username and password and if more security is required an electronic token as well. Other than these two factors there is also biometrics, such as fingerprints. Thus the traditional systems use some combination of: something you know (passwords), something you have (tokens) and something you are (biometrics). Recently a fourth factor: someone you know has been suggested as well. This technique has been applied to the problem of emergency authentication, as a replacement for calls to a helpdesk. This social authentication is based on the process of vouching. In this method a user asks a friend to vouch for them. Previously this was done explicitly, with the user asking a friend for a vouching code. In this thesis we will use users cellphones to automate this process.

Language Learning Through Mobile Phones $151.35 Mobile phones and the wireless Internet in Korea have been evolving rapidly over the last decade. Consequently interest in using them for learning English language, in particular listening skills, has been increasing among learners, teachers, researchers, and business people. However there have been few studies in Korea about the use of mobile phones for listening skills. The present research therefore investigates the potential of wireless application protocol (WAP) sites for listening skills in Korea. Language learners attitudes towards using a WAP site to this end are particularly examined. A WAP site design model effective for listening skills is proposed based on the investigation. The model would enhance comprehensible input, negotiation of meaning, and comprehensible output, as well as facilitating collaborative and studentcentred learning, and developing motivation for learning a second/foreign language. This monograph should be especially useful to professionals in mobileassisted language learning (MALL), or anyone else who may be considering utilising mobile phones for language teaching and learning.
