Static Code Analysis attacks problems before execution when fixing them is cheaper, faster, and far less risky. If you’re serious about scalable, secure, and maintainable software, static analysis is not optional. It’s…

Side-Channel Attacks on Mobile and IoT what they are, why they matter, and how to defend against them
Side-channel attacks are the ugly truth most developers don’t want to face: they extract secrets without breaking crypto math or getting privileged access — by observing physical or microarchitectural side effects (timing, power consumption, EM emissions, cache behavior, sensors, etc.). On constrained devices like phones and IoT nodes this problem is worse because hardware…

Short version: modern Android banking trojans steal credentials and authorize fraud by placing fake UI layers over real banking apps (or by abusing Accessibility), capturing input and bypassing controls. This attack vector is old, effective, and still widely abused — stop treating it like “user error.” Fix the product and the server, harden the…
