Episode 89: Google Wallet's vulnerability

viaForensics revealed some interesting information about Google Wallet. While the system is generally viewed as secure it still does leave some personal data unencrypted. Regarding ID's Gina Jordan spoke with Andrew Hoog, chief investigative officer at viaForensics, about the analysis the company did on the system. While Google made some changes to the software after the report was released, Hoog says more needs to be done. "There was a lot of information left on the device," he says. "If somebody was trying to take over an identity, they could use this information to either pose as you or call you and act like they're the credit card company and try to get you to release the additional information," he adds.
