約翰?海林:從黑客少年到移動安全教父 ????約翰?海林自稱,他在十幾歲時就是計算機黑客。此外,他把藍牙設(shè)備的通訊距離延長到了1.2英里,創(chuàng)下了一項世界紀錄。所有這些,都使他成為最理想的人選,幫助個人和企業(yè)用戶保護手機免受病毒、間諜程序和其他惡意程序的攻擊。 ????海林的移動安全公司Lookout為用戶提供手機或平板電腦提供應(yīng)用程序下載,并告知用戶哪些應(yīng)用程序正在竊取手機上的個人信息(通訊錄、手機短信等)。Lookout公司的技術(shù)以云為依托,能夠?qū)崟r監(jiān)控各種威脅,告知用戶哪些應(yīng)用程序或網(wǎng)站可以安全地使用。現(xiàn)在,該公司約有1,000萬個用戶,遙遙領(lǐng)先于賽門鐵克公司(Symantec)和邁克菲公司(McAfee)等傳統(tǒng)數(shù)據(jù)安全公司,它們提供的手機安全應(yīng)用程序下載次數(shù)已經(jīng)高達數(shù)十萬次。 ????Lookout公司先發(fā)制人的另一個原因在于,現(xiàn)年28歲的海林(自2003年起,就一直關(guān)注無線網(wǎng)絡(luò)安全,遠遠早于智能手機興起的時間)。之后,他創(chuàng)辦了Lookout公司,直接瞄準移動設(shè)備領(lǐng)域,與眾多競爭對手截然不同,因為后者大多脫胎于個人計算機領(lǐng)域。 |
Security: John Hering ????John Hering was a self-described preteen computer hacker, and he holds the world record for extending the range of a Bluetooth-enabled device from a distance (he was 1.2 miles away). All of which makes him the perfect guy to help consumers and businesses secure their mobile phones from viruses, spyware, and other malfeasance. ????Hering's company, Lookout, offers a downloadable app for your cellphone or tablet that, in turn, tells you which of your apps are tapping private data on your phone (contacts, text messages, etc.). Lookout's technology resides in the cloud, and it tracks threats in real time to determine if an app or website is safe for you to access. Today the company has about 10 million users, putting it ahead of traditional data-security companies like Symantec and McAfee, whose mobile security apps have been downloaded hundreds of thousands of times. ????Another reason for Lookout's headstart? Hering, 28, built Lookout specifically for the mobile world (he's been looking at wireless security since 2003, long before the smartphone explosion), while many of his rivals come from the PC world, a completely different animal. |
