name "NFC", as part of the conference "Black Hat-Black Hat 2012" IT security specialist,which was held in "Las Vegas" of America in the period between 21-26 this month.


Has been the experience by phone "Nokia said 9-Nokia N9" document on the system run "Mego-MeeGo" based on the kernel "Linux" open source, and a phone Samsung "Nexus S" worker running Google's "Android", which enables the researcher " Miller, "winning a doctorate in mathematics from penetrating your smartphone and guidance, and even force him to open harmful sites to the network site and download the materials malicious spyware automatically harmful to your phone without your knowledge of, or even your note of this, and during your use of this technique in the process of exchanging links, files and other multimedia content through technology "pairing", any smart phone contact with another through short-wave range, so it is easy to occur to any person within the subway when you stand next to someone else who has property in the same phone, or even walk next to him.
