Zimperium, the world's pioneer in AI-empowered mobile security, today warned that the UK Government’s newly released Fraud Strategy 2026–2029 signals a major shift in both the scale of mobile-targeted fraud and the regulatory expectations placed on enterprises responsible for protecting customers and transactions.
The strategy identifies mobile channels, including messaging platforms, social applications, mobile banking apps, and voice communications, as a central component of modern fraud operations. It also highlights the growing role of AI-enabled phishing, SIM-swapping, fraudulent mobile applications, deepfake impersonation, and social engineering attacks designed to target users directly through mobile devices.
