I have been working on this ~ seems to me doing any crypto where Android keeps the contacts is going to be interfering with the operating system's fundamental design but if one wishes to just keep some info in an enciphered / encrypted form then my suggestion for the moment is to start with how to create a File on the SD card as it is rather obvious that saving data on an SD card ( external storage ) in an enciphered form could be a novel approach to using J.C.E. to enhance Android Security Model
there is an Android Security group that is informed for the crypto stuff but for a place to start I suggest http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/security/security.html On Nov 24, 8:34 am, chander <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi I need to encrypt my android phone contacts while saving a contact > in android form i want to encrypt it using any encryption algorithm > with the help of Java Cryptography extensions. > can i embed my encryption algorithm like DES or any algorithm in > phonebook contacts while saving them to my android phone. > > any help is appreciated. > thanks .... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
