Free tool reveals mobile apps sending unencrypted data
Reported by itworld.com
A surprising amount of mobile data still crosses the Internet unencrypted, and a new free app is designed to show users what isn’t protected.
The program, called Datapp , comes from the University of New Haven’s Cyber Forensics Research and Education Group (UNHcFREG), which last year showed popular Android applications such as Instagram, Grindr and OkCupid failed to safely store or transmit data.
