Speaker: Brandon Dixon

Mobile spam has not reached the same popularity as email spam, but what if it was as easy as submitting a form to spam thousands of people?

Research was done on several messaging services and implementations to identify vulnerabilities to exploit. The end result to the research was that the idea of mobile spam was easily a reality using Jabber/XMPP and some techniques already put in place by multiple vendors.

This talk will conclude with a proof-of-concept web application demo that demonstrates the techniques and issues mentioned as well as thoughts for solving the next generation of spam. Expect to walk away with a new look on mobile spam and the damage that could be done just by pressing submit.
