We all have smartphones , right ? At least the people who is reading this blog have their smartphones. We necessarily stores all our personal information in our phones right from clicking our personal photos to any passwords and credit card information – our phones has it all . Now suppose you download an app , and it hacks all your information . This is what is being based by California users in USA as measured by cyber security company .
As per the study , where we are downloading the app 40 % of us don’t even look at what app is all about , 47 % respondents don’t look at privacy policy and permissions while downloading the app , and this attitude of ours are inviting cyber criminals to hack personal information .
So if you are the app owner and don’t want the customer to face any such issue , given below are some workable solutions :
You should start securing your app right from day 1 of your mobile app development , and obviously not during coding and testing .in order to minimise the security risk during later on stages .
Pre Designing Stage
Even before your start your app designing stage , you must have a clear understanding in your mind about design compliance and security compliance which you need to be followed during your
app development process . The developers must be aware about the regularity requirement of the application , its privacy policy , confidential policy and so on .
Catching up the issue at this stage is a difficult task. The best way is to design a eye catchy app , and mark up the list of all the issue which are potential well in advance and at later stage , usually after design completion hand over the app to security expert .
App Development Stage
This is the stage with should be handled with utmost care to deliver an error free code . The developers should manually keep an eye on the bugs and vulnerabilities within the source code , rather than just relying on the automated tools which are available in the market with are incapable of searching for major security issues .
App Testing And Deployment
Prior to testing of the
mobile application a tester should deeply analyse security test cases . In addition , the development team should work alongside with security team in order to minimise possible security threats .
Maintenance
Maintenance is all about deeply analysing user feedback and reviews to overcome with the problem . If you are really in need of mobile application development company who can take care of all the above facts , feel free to
