Hi All,

I'm trying to determine the best way to securely handle state
transitions. Specifically, how to securely persist items such as
Session Keys or Session IDs between restarts due to a device rotation,
language change, etc
(http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/runtime-changes.html).

Is there a per-restart key available in the onDestroy()/onCreate()
cycle? Note that I don't want to store the secret (or an encryption
key) in a Keychain or Keystore since it can be recovered. I would
prefer something that only lives in memory with a limited lifetime
(the time it takes for the restart).

What does Android provide at the application level to help ensure
sensitive information is not serialized in plain text across restarts?

Jeff
