Hazards in mobile applications, 2019 #Weekly RoundUp

Hello everyone, It’s weekend again and we are back with an interesting topic regarding the threats in mobile applications. The recent study has shown that ⅓ rd of mobile apps for both iOS and Android are having security threats. Most of our data is being exposed and is not safe when entered in 40% of the mobile apps today. The most common reason for this kind of threats is the insecure storage of data.

In detail, they have stated that around 38% of iOS apps and 43% of Android apps are facing threats in mobile applications. And the more thing to be considered is that almost 90% of these vulnerable apps are prone to hacking.

The most targeted information during hacking is passwords, personal data, financial information, etc. Third-party apps expose your phone to greater risk: hackers can steal info much easier without needing physical access to your device.

Mobile app risks stem from a web of security gaps, not isolated client or server issues. Be cautious! Scrutinize apps and the data they request to reduce mobile security risks.

The best way to avoid threats is to decline the access to any site when it requests. Also, it would be more helpful if the user does not open unknown links and chat apps. Downloading the apps from the google play store helps in avoiding hazards.

Cybersecurity is being implemented in every corner of the technology in order to reduce the risks of hacking and other insecurity issues. Dev teams must prioritize robust security features and rigorous testing for mobile apps.
