In the field of technology, the smartphone is the most popular device that is used by almost every user. Technological development has proven highly beneficial for users as they can do a lot of things in a few seconds. For smartphone users, the use of an app is the most supportive feature irrespective of the activity they want to go for. However, with the development of technology, there are also some challenges for the users and app developers. The most important one among these challenges is the security of the app. The hackers are always in search of a soft target for the undue advantage of the presence of data on a device, and hence the developers have to be more vigilant to keep the app secured.
For modern day developers the RASP security is a handy option which can easily safeguard the device from external threats as well as internal malfunction of app. The RASP is a real time security program that can notify the user and terminate the session as soon as the threat is detected.
The need:
Today the hackers are always ready to hack any device from which they can get some valuable data such as bank account information, credit card or property information and monetise the same in anyway. Majority of users are not aware about hacks and tricks used by such hackers and hence they fall prey to their tricks. In many cases they try to hack the system by using a bug or virus and here comes the RASP security in picture. It is a system that can easily check any unnecessary action by or in the app and prevent it from using the information for which it is not authorized. Usually, people rely on firewall or any other antivirus program but they do have a limit and the hackers know the same well. Hence the system of RASP is more useful than any other option as it can immediately notify the user.
Is it is a viable option?
For the users external threat can be a big challenge and to overcome the same it is better to have a security system which can lead to complete protection to the device. RASP is a better and viable option as it can easily and immediately notify the user when the incident is still happening. In some cases firewall parameters prove much lenient compared to the RASP as it acts immediately. Another important point is RASP has feature where the parameter for various apps and systems are defined and hence any unusual activity is immediately tracked and stopped. As it acts promptly it can save the device from leak of data and unauthorized access to the same in any manner.
The framework:
The framework of any such system is the most important aspect. In the case of RASP the framework is capable of countering any threat whether it is by any inside app or any external threat. The app which has easy to go framework can be vulnerable to hacking but in case of RASP the framework plays a vital role in making the device safe against all threats. It is not that easy to override the framework of RASP and get to the location where the data is stored. In case of any such movement irrespective of type the security system gets activated and leads the device to terminate the session or just restart.
The architecture:
For any app, the architecture of the same proves much useful in countering some issues. When it comes to the security of the app, the architecture or framework plays an important role that a developer can decide before going for the development of the app. As per experts, those apps which have normal architecture can be easily accessed by online miscreants, and that is why security architecture has gained more attention. Some of the experts are of the opinion that such a framework may affect the flow of the app, and hence it may act slowly to have the right communication with other processes. The developers can offer a more secure framework, but due to their workload and the stringent deadline, they have to compromise on this aspect. However, after the introduction of RASP security, the developers have understood that it can be highly useful in the long run, and that is why they have also started creating the framework that can satisfy the needs of this technology.
The app development and Traditional approach:
Developers in the field of app development prefer to go for the process of development by modern approach. However, a few also love to go for the same traditional approach which is suitable to them as well as the need for the app. In both approaches the security is of primary concern but the way to address the issues is different. If one goes as per the modern approach he has to develop new style which may reduce his work speed and affect overall efficiency. In any case the style or concern can be rightly tested when a hacker tries to expose the system and steal data by a virus or help of any suspicious app. Modern technology helps the device to stay protected instantly as any suspicious activity of app can lead to termination of the session. If one goes with completely conventional approach there may be chances of hacking the device without much hassle to any hacker. As per traditional app development the damage to the app can be known only after it has got damaged while in modern technology it is not the case as one can know it instantly.
The benefits:
With the help of modern technology the user or developer can know the activity on app immediately. In case one does not notice it also, the system itself takes the charge and stops the link or app working keeping the data safe. Hence it is an inbuilt security system that leads to safety of data. One does not need to have any alert also as the system stops working which may be noticed or one can ignore it leaving the app or uninstalling the same. It also helps one to save additional cost of buying security packages from other parties.
