For Mobile Apps, it isn't the developer that causes the issue, it's the operating environment in which those apps operate in. That's where the security blind spot is. So if a company has a good MDM/EMM solution but also have consumer-facing or public-facing mobile apps, how can they control what happens to their app on the unmanaged devices of their customers? They don't know if that customer has a very old version smartphone, is a few software updates behind, or leaves it alone for periods of time in public places. Those are what hackers look for. We are seeing a lot of breaches happening because of this lack of control. Using a layered security solution approach will help alleviate some of these concerns.
