The Mobile App Security Library

An emulator mimics a mobile device's hardware and software so that you can run the app on it as if it were on an actual physical device.

Zero Trust is a cybersecurity framework that continuously verifies your identity and grants the least privilege while accessing resources.

OWASP is a non-profit that provides free tools, standards, and frameworks to help build secure software and guides security best practices.

Certificate pinning is a security technique that increases secure communication over the TLS (transport layer security) protocol, like HTTPS. It ties a chosen TLS certificate or public key exclusively to the API server, allowing the application to reliably confirm the server's identity each time it connects. During interactions, the server presents a digital certificate to prove its identity and secures the encryption of data sent through APIs between the client and server. By matching the server’s shown certificate against a predetermined or "pinned" certificate within the app, certificate pinning ensures an additional layer of security, preventing man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks and ensuring server communication integrity.
