Congratulations! You’ve discovered a lot about data privacy. Your users can now trust you to protect their data and following the best practices you’ve learned will help you repay that confidence.
Feel free to download the completed final project using the Download Materials button at the top or bottom of this tutorial.
In this tutorial, you used encryption at a high level to protect data. To learn the finer details of advanced encryption, see the Encryption Tutorial for Android tutorial.
You also tightened the user’s data at rest. To protect it during transit, see the Securing Network Data tutorial.
Check out SafetyNet API for some cool features. These include device integrity checking, a Safe Browsing API to check for malicious URLs, and a reCAPTCHA API to protect your app from spammers and other malicious traffic.
Finally, when an OS deletes a file, it only removes the reference, not the data. To completely remove that data, you must overwrite the file with random data beforehand. Explore the Null Safety tutorial for sample code that wipes over files with data.
