Enhancing the Android Mobile App Security using SHA-512 Algorithm

Abstract

Nowadays most of the smart phones are using Android Operating System. Everyday millions of people are purchasing products using Android mobile App. But smart phone users are very much concerned about the security in Internet transactions. Although the Smart Phone has rich set of features, the vulnerability for security attacks by viruses also increases every day. The security of data stored in a Smartphone is given more importance by Android App developers. Installation of every Android app asks for some critical permission to access our critical files and we have to accept the permissions in order to install that application. We propose an approach to increase security for Android Smart phone using our App. Our approach integrates the Android Security Framework with SHA-512 algorithm to make E-Commerce transactions through Android App more secure. The proposed enhanced security framework enhances the security of Android smart phone from the virus and malware. A novel approach to secure the data on Smartphone’s using cryptographic Algorithms is also discussed in this paper.
