A report by leading mobile security testing platform, Appknox<\/a>, titled “Evidence-based Insights – India<\/a>’s Top 100 Android Mobile Apps tested for Cybersecurity<\/a>, \" found that 75% of India’s top 100 Android apps<\/a> contain security risks.

The research found that some of the most prominent Indian apps lag even the most basic security checks. 79% of the apps were affected by network security misconfiguration, while 78% lacked sufficient code obfuscation. Insufficient obfuscation might lead to threat actors decompiling or reverse-engineering the code.

Further, 42% of the apps had insufficient transport layer protection, which happens when data is sent from the mobile app to the server over unsecured channels.

Appknox had placed all the 100 applications through a rigorous automated testing process of 14 different test cases using its security solutions. These checks help determine essential parameters like how data is being stored by the app, how much is shared and accessible, are payments secure, and the possible loopholes that can lead to data leakages.

“We put together this report so that app developers realize the importance of creating apps with no vulnerabilities,” said Harshit Agarwal, CEO of Appknox.

According to Forbes, India is now the number one country globally in the number of apps installed and usage per month.

Out of the 2,976,112 apps on
Google Play<\/a>, more than 157,313 are from Indian publishers, with Meesho<\/a>, Hotstar<\/a>, Flipkart<\/a>, Shopsy, and PhonePe<\/a>, among others being the most downloaded apps from Indian publishers.

领先的移动安全测试平台的一份报告,Appknox——名为“以证据为基础的见解印度前100名的安卓手机应用程序测试网络安全”发现,75%的印度的前100名安卓应用程序包含安全风险。

研究发现,一些最著名的印度应用滞后甚至最基本的安全检查。79%的应用是受到网络安全错误配置的影响,而78%的缺少足够的代码混淆。困惑不足可能导致威胁演员反编译或逆向工程代码。

此外,42%的应用程序有足够的传输层保护,当数据从移动应用程序发送到服务器在不安全的通道。

Appknox把所有的100个应用程序通过一个严格的自动化测试过程中14种不同的测试用例使用它的安全解决方案。这些检查有助于确定基本参数等数据是如何存储的应用,共享和访问是多少,付款安全,可能的漏洞,可能导致数据泄漏。

“我们这个报告放在一起,这样应用程序开发者意识到创建应用程序的重要性,没有漏洞,“Harshit Agarwal说Appknox的首席执行官。

根据福布斯,印度现在是一个国家在全球范围内的应用程序安装和使用。

的2976112个应用程序谷歌玩,157313多名来自印度的出版商,Meesho,Hotstar,Flipkart公司、Shopsy和PhonePe等是最下载应用程序从印度出版商。
