I do like using Logcat for some tracing, but I want to make sure I'm not exposing my users to security issues. Of course Logging shouldn't involve user names and passwords. However, I took a session with a security expert saying that the wrong Logcat statements could help with hackers/crackers.
Basically it says that anything in quotes might not be obfuscated, making it easier for them to spot where things happen. So, Log.i(getClass().getName(), "Sending off the codes to the Nuclear warheads"); would give them a clue. Obviously I wouldn't do that; it's just an example. What are good ways to keep the Logging and/or strings secure? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
