- [Instructor] Once your app is ready to move from development to production, there are additional controls you can apply during the build process to booster the security of your app. These controls are referred to as Anti-tampering Techniques. Anti-tampering Techniques are designed to harden apps against exploitation by building safeguards when the app is compiled. These safeguards they analyze how an app does things like write data to and from memory and then reports on any code where an attacker might be able to hijack that action. Anti-tampering Techniques can also make it harder for an attacker to reverse-engineer an app back to the original source code. As a CSSLP, there are a few Anti-tampering Techniques you are likely to use on a regular basis. One of those techniques is Code Signing. This technique uses cryptography to generate a unique digital signature and to apply that signature to your app. If your…
