Study Notes
MASVS Control Groups
- MASVS-XXXXX represents critical mobile attack surface areas
- MASVS-STORAGE: Secure storage of sensitive data (data-at-rest)
MASVS-STORAGE-1: Securely Store Sensitive Data
- Encryption at Rest: Use strong algorithms like AES-256 to protect data
- Secure Storage Locations: Leverage platform-specific secure storage solutions (Android Keystore, iOS Secure Enclave) for sensitive data like keys and tokens
- Key Management: Store encryption keys separately from data, secured using hardware-backed key management systems
MASVS-STORAGE-2: Prevent Leakage of Sensitive Data
- No Sensitive Data in Logs: Avoid logging sensitive data in error messages or stack traces
- Exclude from Unencrypted Backups: Ensure sensitive data is not included in backups until encrypted
- Data Minimization: Store only necessary sensitive data
- Secure Data Transfer: Prevent sensitive data from being stored in insecure locations or transmitted unencrypted
