Implementación de mecanismos de seguridad brindados por Android para el desarrollo de aplicaciones móviles bancarias en Lima

El presente trabajo de investigación nos muestra los principales mecanismos de seguridad que se deben aplicar durante el desarrollo de aplicaciones bancarias para dispositivos Android. En su contenido se explica en un inicio los principales problemas de seguridad que tiene los dispositivos móviles y sus aplicaciones de manera general según varias fuentes de investigación nacionales e internacionales. Junto a estas vulnerabilidades presentamos los mecanismos que se usan para mitigarlas y su relación con los pilares de la información. También nos centramos en las vulnerabilidades específicas de las aplicaciones bancarias según reportes y estudios en bancos Internacionales y en Latinoamérica, proponiendo medidas para cubrir estos problemas, a través del desarrollo de una demo que emule las actividades de una aplicación bancaria, sobre la cual aplicaremos mecanismos que cubran un cierto número de las vulnerabilidades encontradas. Dentro del trabajo está incluida estadística que recolectamos de usuarios acerca de seguridad en dispositivos móviles y los resultados de la implementación de los mecanismos de seguridad en la demo de la aplicación bancaria.This research work shows us the main security mechanisms that must be applied during the development of banking applications for Android devices.

We also focus on the specific vulnerabilities of banking applications according to reports and studies in International banks and in Latin America, proposing measures to cover these problems, through the development of a demo that emulates the activities of a banking application, on which we will apply mechanisms that cover a certain number of the vulnerabilities found. Within the work is included statistics that we collect from users about security in mobile devices and the results of the implementation of security mechanisms in the demo of the banking application.Campus Lima Centr

Android Users Privacy Awareness Survey

Having a share of over 80% of the smartphone market, Android has become an important mobile operating system that is used by billions of users on daily basis. With the widespread use of smartphones in general, and Android in specific, privacy concerns grow with that expansion in the user base. With the millions of applications being downloaded by users daily, it is becoming increasingly difficult to differentiate between the good and the bad in terms of security and privacy. In this paper, we present the results of a survey conducted among 4027 Android users worldwide. This survey was conducted to measure the awareness of Android users regarding their privacy. The study measures the users' interaction with the permissions required by different applications they install. The results of the survey show apparent weakness in the awareness of Android users regarding the privacy of their data
