Android Application Development Security

When you hire app developers and the app development process begins, make sure that the security of the app remains the main focus throughout the Android application development process. As per a research by Arxan, 1005 of the popular paid apps on Android platform had been hacked at least once. This fact alone is more than adequate for you to focus on the security of the app from the beginning.

 

Some important aspects that Android application developers should focus on are:

 

• Data transfer

• Authentication

• Data at rest

• App distribution

• Version check

• Application tampering

• Code security

 

Android application developers can use methods like content control for limiting the copy/paste actions and make use of the ‘open in’ feature to make sure that the app does not open any kind of dangerous content. Also, ensure that the code is tested in the real world through download and installation process verification.
