A STUDY ON DATA SECURITY ON MOBILE APPLICATION

Abstract: The widespread adoption of mobile application has introduced significant data security risks, compromising sensitive use information. A mixed method approach was employed combining a literature review, survey of mobile application developer and users and vulnerability testing of selected mobile applications. The results reveal inadequate data security practices, including insecure data storage, insufficient encryption, and weak authentication mechanisms. This project provides recommendations for improving data security in mobile applications, emphasizing the need for robust security measures, user education, and awareness. The findings and recommendations contribute to the development of more secure mobile applications, benefiting developers, users, and organizations.
