Use Apple’s built-in hardware security like Secure Enclave, encrypt sensitive data with proper protection classes, and always use the Keychain for secrets. We clear secrets from memory as soon as possible with memory zeroing, and never store passwords or tokens…
Use HTTPS for all iOS API requests to prevent eavesdropping and man-in-the-middle attacks. Store authentication tokens in the iOS Keychain, not in plain text or code. Short-lived tokens with PKCE-enhanced OAuth 2.0 and multi-factor authentication (MFA) dramatically tighten mobile app…
A friend of mine once built a simple iOS login screen, thinking little of what could go wrong. Two weeks later, a test user tried pasting a long string of script tags into the username field. The app crashed. That…
Use layered checks and code obfuscation to catch jailbreak attempts on iOS devices. Monitor suspicious file paths, inspect loaded libraries at runtime, and validate code signatures. Always combine several detection methods to keep your app a step ahead of jailbreak…
Use Alamofire’s built-in SSL pinning features in Swift to defend your app’s network traffic from man-in-the-middle threats. We’ll guide you through loading certificates, configuring trust, and handling failures, all while sharing our hard-won lessons from the trenches. This is practical,…
Use XPC services and Mach ports for secure, controlled communication between iOS apps. Always validate every message, sanitize inputs, and never trust data from another process implicitly. App Groups enable safe sharing, but stay vigilant, security starts with skepticism. Key…
Use parameterized queries for every SQL statement. Validate and sanitize all input, with extra care for data coming from URL schemes. Assign the least database privilege possible, and never trust unchecked user input. Key Takeaway Implementing Secure SQL Query Practices…
Use ATS in your iOS app by editing Info.plist, keeping HTTPS enforced by default. Enable exceptions only for trusted, necessary domains and always document your reasons thoroughly. Update certificates and protocols often, and review your ATS settings before every App…
Use Keychain for sensitive credentials, Core Data for structured app data, and Realm for secure, cross-platform storage. Always enable encryption, store keys in Keychain, and avoid saving secrets in plain text. We recommend combining these approaches, each fills a security…
Building secure iOS apps starts with disciplined coding practices, not guesswork. Strong type checking, strict input validation, and relying on trusted platform APIs are non-negotiable. Credentials must stay in the iOS Keychain, never in plain files, and HTTPS should be…
