Implementation Of An Android App For The Campus Security

Technology is an ever advancing industry and is in some aspects taking over the world. Today most students have a smartphone and they keep it with them at all times. Current smartphones are designed primarily for teenagers and are designed to help student with

We are expert at the degrees of user interface (UI) / user experience (UX) for Android. We have the tools to do it accurately; and the challenge of having to manually write some code is welcome.

Students’ data was once a risk for security breaches due to the lack of secured emails, different services used by the university, and social tool being used that were not appropriately secured. The TAMU system is used by individuals with a vast background, i.e. students, visitors, professor and staff. The TAMU, through a third party, improved their computer security and now all involved can securely sync their electronic devices to include their smartphones. The article explains how the university separate data, which presently can be stored in a cloud, if the data is less critical, with sensitive data being stored locally. Advanced data security features are being released at the university in stages. This proactive prevention measure has assisted in controlling security

As times change and technology advances, data collection mechanisms also change to much easier ways. Mobile phones are a great asset that will aid in data collection. Installing questionnaires in smartphones and tablets is a timely way to ensure that data is transmitted almost immediately as soon as the questionnaire is filled, (Braun et al., 2013). This also helps in presenting true information as capturing of location through geographical position system (GPS) is done before the data is submitted into the server. Another advantage when using mobile phones to collect data is that the security of the data is almost guaranteed. Compared to the traditional use of paper, whose privacy could be easily compromised, mobile phones are small and easily stored for security purpose. Incorporation of mobile phones is based on the fact that the method is easily grasped since most if not all individuals have interacted with smartphones therefore minimal training on its use is needed, (Braun et al.,

The use of smartphones have become a norm in our society and its capabilities are evolving every year. The smartphones today are more powerful than some of the computers that were made a decade ago. The use of these phones have made an imprint on today’s social behaviors, for example, students take pictures of the teachers lecture notes, and can do research with just a few swipes on their mobile phones. With so many of these smart devices in use in our society there should be more examination on safety corresponding to the health, the social wellbeing, and human identity of all individuals.

Assess your current security solutions and risks. In today’s increasingly mobile world, it is not enough to have a strong network perimeter anymore. You need a complete security plan that encompasses the various ways that employees and guests interact with your network. Among the top security concerns for companies, are Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies and security, network access monitoring for all endpoints and devices, automated detection, quarantine and context for malware as well as security alerts, and compliance management. Aligning these priorities with a strategic security plan that cost-effectively invests in new technology, while maximizing your existing technology investments is

The use of mobile devices in the workplace may provide convenience; however, securing and regulating the use of mobile devices within the workplace is critical for safe and efficient business practices. As a result, Edu Corp continuously recommends security software and applications for employee mobile devices, assures all mobile security components are up-to-date, encrypts data on mobile devices, as necessary, requires password protection on mobile devices used for business-related tasks, encourages employees to be aware of their surroundings, along with potential security vulnerabilities, sets strict communication strategies and standards, employs a solid system for handling and/or recovering

Blackberry, a former smartphone juggernaut, is a company that prides itself in being the most secure and productive mobile services and software firm on the market. It will be critiqued and analyzed in this paper. Following the critique, a recommendation will be made at the end.

With that training I came to know about various things like Honeypots, Dos Attacks, IP Spoofing, etc. I am a regular reader of magazines like, CHIP and Computer today, which enabled me to be in touch with the latest developments in various technologies. It was because of interest in me towards latest trends, I choose an ANDROID application entitled “STUDENT REMINDER WITH AUTO-TASK PERFORMER” as a part of my mini project. At present I am working on a Networking project entitled “MULTIPARTY ACCESS CONTROL FOR ONLINE SOCIAL NETWORKS MODEL AND MECHANISMS”.

These papers "Design of Touch Dynamics Based User Authentication with an Adaptive Mechanism on Mobile Phone," by Y. Meng, D. S. Wong, and L.-F. Kwok , and " Continuous Mobile Authentic-cation Using Touchscreen Gestures," by T. Feng, Z. Liu, K.-A. Kwon, W. Shi, B. Carbunar, Y. Jiang, and N. Nguy are compared. The two papers illustrate that touchscreen mobile phones are very popular and used to store sensitive information such as passwords, personal photos and business information [1,2]. Thus, smartphones become valuable places and targets for attacks. Moreover, smartphones are eligible to be stolen and lost which enhances the chance for unauthorized users access to personal, sensitive information [1,2]. Consequently, the Y. Meng et al.

The world of phone applications is expanding at a rapid rate every day. Apps are now becoming more and more important in everyday life and they are also becoming more and more valuable. With new horizons being reached and new innovations being released it’s important for computing students to try and tap into the world of apps and mobile technology. Each D.I.M.E (Digital, Innovation, Management and Enterprise) group was tasked with coming up with an app idea as a group project.

After sometime since the Android hype, it created a market for security vendors. With a lot of Android users seeking protection for their phones, this created a competition for the vendors to come up with their gimmicks. These aren’t necessarily listed as which one’s the best, as features vary. We move onto the list:

Everything in the arena of APP development is about to be changed. Mobile APP development Company and Android App Development would require to focus more on end-user experience and added security. Google which supports billions of apps recently announced some key guidelines on APP development. These changes will come into effect from 2018 and 2019-time period. Guidelines fundamentally aim to improve the security and performance of mobile applications.

Abstract - The main objective of this research paper is to propose a mobile solution for those students who are registered with course of bachelor engineering technology program. We have seen over the years that the process of manual records has been carried out across almost all educational institutions. The process is not only time consuming but also sometimes inefficient resulting in the false marking of attendance. To discourage the student 's above mentioned attitude towards learning; a mobile application has been designed, developed and tested for android platform. The paper describes the step by step design and development techniques process of android application which can be utilized as an integral component of learning model of engineering education anywhere.

In order to fulfil the task presented, which was to create an android app which displays a university campus map – with clickable buildings showing the available computers in the building while also having buttons for reserving a computer. In addition to being able to cancel a reservation, and alter the number of computers available dependant on reserving or cancelling reservations.
