Recently my boss provided me with a license for some mind-mapping software (if you’re curious, it’s MindManager from MindJet). So, I took it for a spin on a subject close to my heart and if you’re a regular reader I’m betting you’ll be able to guess what it is – yep, mobile device threats.

You can see the results below (click on the image for a larger version). This rocked for several reasons, not the least because it saved me from having to type out long and rambling descriptions while trying to poorly communicate their relationships. The threats shown below are the most applicable to modern smart devices, yet certain categories also apply to legacy mobile devices running proprietary operating systems.
