Tiivistelmä
The purpose of this thesis was to develop an Android app which ensures user privacy and security in mobile devices using Biometrics. This app was designed to perform traditional texting function without use of internet in the android platform. It was intended to use for everyone This thesis mainly discuss the need of storing our mobile data more secure, possible methods and impacts, and why it more important in the modern world, Existing passwords are not secure enough, Encryption techniques, and encryption standard. Fingerprint played the major role for authentication in this CText app.
The development tools used for this project is Android studio, which is most important for design an Android App. And it is recommended and acceptable by all android device manufactures to support maximum function. Java programming language is used for logical and complex coding, AES Encryption standard was used to provide high security and break free the key from brutal-attacks by super computer. It made the CText App encryption is stronger and more reliable and forever secure.
Biometric Fingerprint is used as main verification method for legitimate access in this app. Fingerprint is the most secure biometrics compared to face and Voice recognition and iris scanner. Most of the biometrics required specialized sensors or readers for enrollment. Most of the smartphone comes with fingerprint. So it’s easy to use to work with more devices. CText Android came with Fingerprint to ensure user privacy and security.
.
This project is designed and developed using agile software development methodologies, from the planning stage to evaluation stage. Testing performed numerous repeated set of test cases in real android devices to make sure the app functions working without lack or performance degradation. The issues and challenges are faced by the author both in terms of technical issues and other deadlines to meet also presented.
After this CText App launched in Google Play store, feedback will be collected from the end users and potential scenarios and then planned to develop the future development needs to make it more user friendly and better for everyone.
