Mobile app security

This example was designed on the base of the diagram from the article "How secure is that mobile app?" by N.V. Fleming on the website of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC). "Neither company validated security certificates to make sure the app was sending the information to the right place. That left users vulnerable to “man in the middle attacks.” An attacker could trick the app into letting him access communications between the app and the online service. Neither the person using the app nor the online service would know the attacker was there." [consumer.ftc.gov/blog/how-secure-mobile-app] The cybersecurity diagram example "Mobile app security" was created using the ConceprDraw PRO software extended with the Network Security Diagrams solution from the Computer and Neworks area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.
