CS 775 - Mobile Application Security


We live in the era of mobile computing. Mobile devices have more sensors and more capabilities than desktop computers. For any computing device that contains sensitive information and accesses the Internet, security is a major concern for both enterprises and end users. The Mobile Security course will show students the security problems that developers and IT managers need to look for when developing and deploying mobile applications, and the solutions to those problems on some of the most popular mobile platforms, such as Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android. Therefore, this course will prepare students to real-life problems and situations by giving them not only an overview of security issues and possible attacks related to mobile devices and an in-depth analysis of those issues, but also the knowledge of how to develop mobile applications more securely and how to keep mobile devices secure.
