Obfuscating your Android app to slow down reversers

During our last meetup (https://www.meetup.com/Mobile-Security-and-Privacy/events/67309702/), we showed how to reverse Android apps. This time, Lookout's Tim Strazzere will show a couple techniques on how to slow down reverse engineering on your app. Tim recently presented "Dex Education: Practicing Safe Dex" at Blackhat 2012 showing some advanced attacks on Android reversing tools.

We should have more about this talk in a few days, but in the meantime, check out Tim's slides from Blackhat (http://www.strazzere.com/papers/DexEducation-PracticingSafeDex.pdf) and his open source tools for obfuscation (https://github.com/strazzere/APKfuscator).
