Hackers can cause unthinkable damage to an app if a user with a large number of rights is compromised. An application should also not ask for privileges that are out of its functionality.

  12. 10 Key Security Features for Android App Development 9. Testing Apps on a Regular Basis The procedure of securing a mobile app is not one-time. You need to constantly pay attention and secure the mobile apps. There are new threats that emerge every day and cause damage to the users’ data. Also, the cases of ransom wares have increased. To curb all these threats, the app should be tested regularly and if any problem is faced, then it should be solved.

  13. 10 Key Security Features for Android App Development 10. Encrypt Cache The cache is a type of component that saves the data on the device of the user temporarily. It helps to avoid the delay in the data retrieval. But, if the data in the cache is not encrypted, hackers can readily access it. When a session ends, the app’s data isn’t always removed, and the cache isn’t always cleared. So, the cache should be encrypted for security purposes.

  14. 10 Key Security Features for Android App Development Conclusion In conclusion, we would like to say that in current times, the number of cyber-attacks, ransomware, etc. has increased a lot. Therefore, the android app development companies have to ensure proper security of mobile applications to safeguard the interest of the users. The companies should use the above-mentioned features for the safety & security of the mobile applications.
