Abstract
The rapid growth in communications development has made devices intelligent, efficient and convenient to accomplish many of our daily tasks, where they became an integral part of our lives. On the other hand, this growth has led to an expansion in the percentage of security risks and threats to the network devices and their data. Therefore, in this paper, we present a comprehensive study of the proposed solutions to protect smartphones from two of the physical security attacks which are commercial fraud and lost or theft. In addition, we discuss these two physical security attacks and provides several statistics related to them.
