Android Security and Getting your Mum's Number - Slash

This talk introduces Android, security models and some real world vulnerabilities then concludes with an overview on how to assess Android devices and applications.  Sash will (hopefully) provide demo's using the emulator and the eclipse SDK such that the audience will become familiar with identifying low hanging fruit that can be used to compromise application data, and perhaps gain system execution.
