Symantec and Incidents.org are reporting that the first trojan to attack mobile Windows software (that is, Pocket PC software) has been released into the wild. This trojan will attempt to open a udp port and comunicate back to the hacker's site. While it is not particularly distructive (yet), it does open up the next wave of attacks on computer devices.

Meanwhile, other reports are out that with the advent of more advanced peripheral protection  (firewalls, anti-virus, etc) for edge computers and servers, the hacker community will focus more on these simple handheld devices. PDAs are a common occurance in the business communities. With built-in wireless as well as cradle-based wired connectivity, PDAs can open up a security hole inside the corporate intranet. Symantic and others are offering security software for PDAs, but the market is still untapped in this area. That means its an open hole for hackers.
