Mobile Application Security Controls

Application security is the process of testing and examining an application to ensure that mobile apps web applications or apis are secure from potential attacks.

Mobile application security controls.

Mobile application security testing can be thought of as a pre production check to ensure that security controls in an application work as expected while safeguarding against implementation errors. Organizations often lack the expertise and bandwidth to monitor their applications adequately and adapt their security protocol to mitigate emerging threats. With that kind of information at stake mobile app developers need to do everything they can to protect their users and clients. Through the project our goal is to classify mobile security risks and provide developmental controls to reduce their impact or likelihood of exploitation.

The owasp mobile security project is a centralized resource intended to give developers and security teams the resources they need to build and maintain secure mobile applications. Here are 10 ways developers can build security into their apps.
