Broadening Secure Mobile Software Development (SMSD) Through Curriculum Development (Abstract Only)
In this poster we present an innovative authentic learning approach for Secure Mobile Software Development(SMSD) through real world scenario case studies. The primary goal of this learning approach is to create an engagement and motivating learning environment that encourages all students in learning emerging SMSD technologies and enhances their secure software development concepts. This approach provides students with hands on laboratory practices on real world SMSD and mobile security. The laboratory consists of multiple modules covering input validation, output encoding, secure inter process communication, secure data protection, secure mobile database. Each topic consists of a series of progressive sub labs: a pre lab, lab activities, and a student add on post lab. The preliminary feedback from students is positive. Students have gained hands on real world experiences on Android software security with Android mobile devices, which also greatly promoted students' self efficacy and confidences in their mobile security learning.
