After launching a mobile-security service last week, Finnish antivirus specialist F-Secure is being accused of magnifying threats to smart phones.
The Beselo.A and Beselo.B worms are in the wild, looking to lure Symbian S60 users into clicking on their incoming malicious files, according to a warning issued on Tuesday by F-Secure.
F-Secure has denied overplaying the threat posed by mobile malware after the Finnish antivirus vendor issued information about a new mobile worm.
A new variant of the Skulls Trojan horse for cell phones is trying to trap victims by posing as antivirus software, F-Secure has warned.
The first real mobile phone virus, which was found in the wild and could replicate on its own, was discovered almost two years ago.
Security researchers worked overtime in 2007, which turned out to be a nightmare for software vendors from day one.
Despite improvements to the security of Symbian's third edition of its operating system, the Series 60, spyware still poses a major threat to mobile phone security, says F-Secure's senior security specialist, Patrik Runald.
