| Abstract: | Mobile learning is constantly evolving, following the shift of mobile technologies from
laptops to handheld devices and smartphones. Indeed, the opportunities for innovation in this
area are numerous and constantly under the focus of all the parties involved, ranging from
traditional schools and universities to individual learners. However, mobile technology
brings along increased threats to system and data security and privacy, given the fact that
learners and educators are mobile, and in most cases, permitted to use their own mobile
devices to access resources and services. After identifying the challenges, this paper provides
a comprehensive review and classification of the state-of-the-art research on security and
privacy in the m-learning realm and beyond. As far as we are aware of, this is the first time
an exhaustive and detailed survey of this kind is attempted. |
