CODE HARDENING

Code hardening: Guard against static analysis. Code hardening: Guard against static analysis. Code hardening serves as your frontline defense against reverse engineering and tampering attempts for both Android and iOS mobile apps. Protect valuable code, secure sensitive information and prevent IP theft. Connect with an expert. PROGUARD MANUAL: BUILDING Building ProGuard is easy - you'll need: a Java 8 JDK installed. a clone of the ProGuard repository. a clone of the ProGuardCORE repository, since ProGuard is built on the ProGuardCORE library. You can then execute a composite build with the following Gradle command: Linux/macOS. ./gradlew --include-build = /path/to/proguard-core

assemble.

PROGUARD MANUAL: ATTRIBUTES Configuration - Attributes. Class files essentially define classes, their fields, and their methods. A lot of essential and non-essential data are attached to these classes, fields, and methods as attributes.For instance, attributes can contain bytecode, source file names, line number tables, etc. PROGUARD MANUAL: STANDALONE Setup - Standalone. To run ProGuard, just type: Typically, you'll put most options in a configuration file (say, myconfig.pro ), and just call: You can combine command line options and options from configuration files. For instance: You can add comments in a configuration file, starting with a # character and continuing until the end of the line. WHY OPEN SOURCE IS GOOD FOR SUSTAINABILITY Learn the three reasons why corporate-sponsored open source projects like ProGuard are a great model for long-term sustainability. WHAT IS MOBILE PAYMENT SECURITY? What is mobile payment security?. In 2020, more than 1 billion people worldwide used a mobile payment app to pay in-store at least every six months. Mobile payment application security is a critical part of protecting consumer transactions and ensuring that sensitive payment data does not end up in the hands of malicious actors via reverse-engineering or dynamic attacks.

MOBILE APP THREAT MONITORING Pentesting, or penetration testing, is often performed by third-party experts to attempt to identify security gaps in your app and gain insight into its internal logic, just as a threat actor would. A complement to pentesting is mobile application security testing (MAST), a technology for automated security testing. WHY OPEN SOURCE IS GOOD FOR SUSTAINABILITY Learn the three reasons why corporate-sponsored open source projects like ProGuard are a great model for long-term sustainability. PROGUARD MANUAL: QUICKSTART Quick Start¶. This page will guide you through the basic steps of processing your application or library with ProGuard. For details on advanced settings or more background information please refer to the relevant parts of the manual. There are two ways to execute ProGuard: Standalone. Integrated mode in your Gradle, Ant or Maven project. PROGUARD MANUAL: BUILDING Building ProGuard is easy - you'll need: a Java 8 JDK installed. a clone of the ProGuard repository. a clone of the ProGuardCORE repository, since ProGuard is built on the ProGuardCORE library. You can then execute a composite build with the following Gradle command: Linux/macOS. ./gradlew --include-build = /path/to/proguard-core
