Kaspersky Lab’s experts identify a number of important trends following the results of its quarterly malware report

Abingdon, UK, 19 May 2011 – Cyber criminals have capitalised on the recent growth in popularity of the Android mobile platform. Based on the number of new mobile malware signatures detected during this period, Kaspersky Lab’s experts believe that the total volume of mobile malware in 2011 will be at least double that of 2010. That growth will be driven by the emergence of new methods of infecting users’ computers.
