We all know how important apps have become for us. We want apps to simplify our tasks and that is where we are becoming more and more dependent on them. Mobile apps, however, are becoming a major cause for the online frauds and threat that many businesses and individuals have been facing. People use apps to make online payments and put their data and money at risk for a little bit of convenience. Most banking websites and applications are there that help the user stay away for malicious entities and eavesdropping sites. Developers are being more active. There are many professionals providing Android App Development services who are combatting such attacks. But that may not be enough. Potentially, someone using the same Wi-Fi network as you can attempt a ‘man-in-the-middle’ attack. Such attacks are just how they sound like: A third party jumps in between you and your financial organization and can access the valuable and private information about your account – with no chances of you ever knowing it happened.
