Metodología para la selección de herramientas eficientes y protocolos adecuados para mejorar la seguridad de los dispositivos móviles

Abstract

Currently there are tools to protect the information contained in mobile devices, many users are unaware of the risks involved in not using the appropriate protection measures; On the other hand there are international standards that provide complete models for the management and continuous improvement of information security management systems. In this research, we review: information security, security in mobile environments, revision of the main standards related to computer security such as: ISO 27001, NIST 800-30, COBIT 5 and OWASP; By means of the adaptation of the Method of Study of Similarity between Models and Standards (MSSS) an analysis of these standards was made; Finally a methodology was designed to which the respective test phase was applied. The objective of this research was to design a methodology for the selection of efficient tools and adequate protocols to improve the security of mobile devices, which has been fulfilled with the creation of the methodology called: Methodology for Selecting Security Tools in Mobile Devices (Ms-DisMov), which will allow users and professionals dedicated to the protection of information, have a practical guide that allows them to select validated tools and can improve their level of protection of the information contained in their mobile devices.
