Part A
SYNOPSIS
In this assignment you need to create a secure mobile application (`app') based on the Android platform, and to demonstrate and explain its functionality and security features. For achieving a top grade, an awareness of appropriate software development methodologies and evidence
of testing (including that of security features) needs to be demonstrated.
Secure Mobile App
You can create any type of mobile Android application you wish, or you can use the code from one of the workshops, or select an existing Open Source project and extend that to add further functionality This needs to involve at least one wireless communication functionality, and a substantial security feature in your app by either expanding on the ideas given in the workshops, or by implementing your own approach.
You are advised to discuss your idea with the module leader before you start work on it.
You may use code from other libraries and APIs (including cryptographic libraries), but if you do you must clearly indicate what code you have written yourself and all code you have taken from elsewhere, otherwise you may be found guilty of plagiarism.
Please note that you need to acknowledge and reference the sources of any code you might use that you have not written. Software Demonstration At the software demonstration you will be expected to demonstrate the functionality of your app, explain your security testing methodologies and results obtained, explain the code you have written, and answer questions about it.
