Battle-Tested GUIDELINES for Securing Google android Apps throughout the Advancement Lifecycle

Android’s immense reputation has managed to get today’s #1 focus on for assault: high-profile victims consist of eHarmony, Facebook, and Delta Airlines, merely to name a few.

Unlike “dark hat/gray hat” books, which concentrate on breaking code, this information brings together complete guidelines for hardening code through the entire entire advancement lifecycle. Today, every Google android app must resist aggressive episodes and protect data, and in Bulletproof Google android™, Godfrey Nolan demonstrates how. Using detailed illustrations from a huge selection of apps he provides individually audited, Nolan identifies common “anti-patterns” that expose apps to attack, and demonstrates better solutions.

Nolan addresses authentication, networking, databases, server attacks, libraries, equipment, and even more. He illuminates each technique with code good examples, offering professional advice on execution and trade-offs. Each subject is backed with a total sample app, which demonstrates true security complications and solutions.

Discover ways to

  • Apply core procedures for securing the system
  • Protect code, algorithms, and business guidelines from invert engineering
  • Eliminate hardcoding of keys, APIs, and various other static data
  • Eradicate extraneous data from creation APKs
  • Overcome the initial challenges of cellular authentication and login
  • Transmit information safely using SSL
  • Prevent man-in-the-middle episodes
  • Safely shop data in SQLite databases
  • Prevent attacks against internet servers and solutions
  • Avoid side-channel data leakage through third-party libraries
  • Protected APKs running on different devices and Android variations
  • Achieve HIPAA or FIPS compliance
  • Harden gadgets with encryption, SELinux, Knox, and MDM
  • Preview emerging episodes and countermeasures

This guidebook is an ideal complement to Nolan’s Android™ Protection Essentials LiveLessons (video teaching;

ISBN-13: 978-0-13-382904-4) and reflects new risks which have been identified because the LiveLessons were released.
