Mobile App Development Company Build a secure and private mobile app experience
"Secure to the core" has been the working model at IBM from the inherently secure high-volume-transaction proprietary mainframe systems through to today's value-added security placed on top of the open-source solutions that IBM has embraced since the 1990's. Privacy is about more than just complying with the law, though. IBM believes in getting ahead of privacy regulations because we value the trust placed in us by our clients.
Both privacy and security are concerns in today's mobile world as we carry around more personal information in our devices than we often have in any one institution (including our home).
In this article, I'll review best practices and tools, services, and frameworks that you should consider for your mobile applications that access or process personal information.
DevSecOps IS DevOps
We all experience mobile app updates regularly on our devices because apps are not static. Mobile app publishers are adding new capabilities or fixing bugs on a regular basis to continuously improve the "WOW" experience. This continued lifecycle of creating code, releasing the app, and adapting to feedback is DevOps. And, DevOps is typically done much faster than the traditional, large, heritage system efforts.
As mobile developers, we have to build the appropriate amount of security into any DevOps toolchain as early as possible. Whether you call it DevOps or explicitly identify security by calling it DevSecOps, the "appropriate amount of security" will largely depend on the sensitivity of the data that your app uses.
I'll take you on a tour around the DevOps lifecycle, specifically calling out areas to expand your security capabilities in your mobile app.
