Testing security software for mobile platforms isn’t the easiest testing area, but given that so many people use mobile devices for much or even all their personal computing, it’s a very important one.
And it’s exactly the area addressed by a paper recently published on the Anti-Malware Testing Standards Organization web site. Major topics it addresses include similarities and dissimilarities to testing for PC platforms, real world anti-malware testing (of course), and battery drain measurement.
The document AMTSO Guidelines on Mobile Testing was approved by the AMTSO membership on the 20th February 2014.
