Mobile threats have evolved in 2025—but so have your defenses.
The biggest gains come from better default encryption and the death of passwords.
Passkeys are now standard, using biometrics to verify identity without storing private data online.
On Android, sandboxing limits app permissions more strictly,
while Apple continues tightening iOS security boundaries.
For users, the rule is simple: update early, disable unnecessary permissions,
and use encrypted messaging for sensitive communication.
The next frontier? AI-driven malware detection that adapts in real time to phishing attempts.
