Abstract | App vetting is the process of approving or rejecting an app prior to deployment on a mobile device. * The decision to approve or reject an app is based on the organization's security requirements and the type and severity of security vulnerabilities found in the app. * Security vulnerabilities including Cross Site Scripting (XSS), information leakage, authentication and authorization, session management, and SQL injection can be exploited to steal information or control a device. |
