How are security credentials/passwords stored on android phones? Are they encrypted or in other way secured in case of i.e. theft?
For example, if my telephone gets stolen, would it be possible to easily get access to stored browser passwords, my google password, app passwords (e.g. login to cloud services) Are these in some way encrypted and tied to PIN, unlock code or other are they completely "in the open"? Is it up to the individual app developer to securely store credentials/passwords/data (if possible) or does it exist a security framework in Android? Thanks for any insight, from someone new to Android! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Security Discussions" group.
