Attack vectors grow increasingly complex and a robust mobile security strategy is needed to deliver secure native mobile applications. In this session we will focus on discussing native mobile development security best practices.

In this session you will learn about three points in the mobile technology chain where hackers may exploit vulnerabilities to launch attacks.

You will also learn some of the best security practices to protect your application against such attacks:
