| Summary: | The number of blockchain applications are increasing with the growth in blockchain
technology. More developers are leveraging their applications on the blockchain
platform to fully utilise the benefits of a distributed and decentralised network.
Hence, Blockchain technology can be integrated with mobile applications to explore
new boundaries in the world of technology.
Nonetheless, digital security is a major component in today’s world due to many
cases of cyber attacks from around the world. Hence, security must not be neglected
when employing blockchain technology on applications. For this project, security
testing is performed on a mobile blockchain application created to perform data
storage and transfer between the mobile interface and the blockchain network. The
blockchain technology used for this project is Ethereum and the mobile application is
created on the Android platform.
There are a few security aspects which the project will focus on: Security on
Ethereum, Integration between Android and Ethereum and Application Security.
Security tests are performed for each aspect and the results, observations deduced
from the tests will help to identify threats and possibly fix the vulnerabilities and
issues that are detected. |
