Abstract: 

With the increasing adoption of mobile phone, the previously hard-to-reach low-literate low-income users in developing regions can now be reached through their mobile phones. Government and other agencies are providing mobile services such as banking and healthcare to this marginalized population to improve their quality of life. In this paper we highlight the security and privacy challenges in developing solutions for this user group.
