Abstract
This paper describes a framework that can be used to identify security requirements for a specific mobile environment. The model includes three dimensions: mobile users, mobile hardware and mobile software. The analysis of the three dimensions can determine the characteristics of the specific implementation and needed security measures. Specific security measures for mobile hardware, mobile users and mobile software are also discussed.
