iVerify and NCFTA To Host Inaugural Advanced Mobile Security Summit

Invite-only event brings industry CISOs, government leaders and researchers together to address mobile devices a growing path into the enterprise

NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, October 14, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- iVerify, the pioneer in advanced mobile endpoint detection and response (EDR), and the National Cyber-Forensics and Training Alliance (NCFTA), today announced the inaugural Advanced Mobile Security Summit, a closed-door event in New York City on November 10, 2026. The summit brings together CISOs, security leaders, government experts, threat researchers and academics to share firsthand experience with mobile threats and advance collaboration on detection and response.

Years of investment in traditional endpoint, cloud and network security have left mobile phones as the least protected device and turned them into enterprise credential faucets to gain access to business applications and data. Threat groups including Scattered Spider and ShinyHunters have used phone-based social engineering, such as voice phishing and SIM swapping, to gain access to corporate systems, according to public reporting from CISA and Google Threat Intelligence Group.

“Mobile threats have matured beyond the security capabilities OEMs provide,” said Rocky Cole, co-founder and COO of iVerify. “Patching alone is no longer a viable strategy because AI collapsed the time to exploitation such that vulnerabilities are exploited before patches can be implemented; further, threat actors have evolved their tactics to the point where post-attack forensics are increasingly unable to recover meaningful evidence of exploitation. On-device visibility is critical to detecting advanced mobile threats, such as DarkSword and Coruna, in real time, before the evidence is erased. That's why we're seeing mobile-first organizations, from banks and airlines to government agencies, demand meaningful EDR capabilities for mobile beyond legacy network solutions like MTD, and why we wanted a room where the people defending them can talk candidly.”

"Mobile devices now sit at the center of how fraud and intrusion campaigns reach their victims, and no single organization sees the whole picture," said Matt LaVigna, NCFTA’s CEO. "This summit puts investigators, researchers, and the security leaders defending these networks in the same room. That is how shared intelligence turns into action."

AI is changing mobile risk on two fronts. AI-assisted vulnerability research is shortening the time between the discovery of a flaw and its use in an attack, leaving organizations that rely on patching exposed. At the same time, on-device AI assistants, shadow AI apps, and AI features embedded in ordinary applications can access email, messages, and credentials, often without security teams' knowledge.

The closed-door gathering covers topics including:
- Updates on the mobile threat landscape, including Coruna and DarkSword
- Government perspectives and nation-state mobile operations
- AI on the mobile device: shadow AI, embedded AI features, and data exposure
- CISO panel: closing the mobile gap in enterprise security
- Academic perspective on mobile threats
- Building mobile security at scale in financial services
