Hi everybody,

I am working on a project that requires to store sensitive data on an
android mobile phone. Up to now, it seems that the suitable place to
store that data is the private folder that is owned by the
application. However, in a rooted phone this folder can be accessed
easily.

Other alternative is related to encryption. Again, the point is where
to store the corresponding key. The security API of android provides a
keystore class that can contain cryptographic keys. Does anybody knows
where this file is stored?,  is it necessary to create a keystore for
each application that required it?  and  how secure is the access to
the information in this file by unauthorized applications?.

Any idea or suggestions will be welcome!

thanks
