Mobile app security

This example was designed on the base of the diagram from the article "How secure is that mobile app?" by N.V. Fleming on the website of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
"Neither company validated security certificates to make sure the app was sending the information to the right place. That left users vulnerable to “man in the middle attacks.” An attacker could trick the app into letting him access communications between the app and the online service. Neither the person using the app nor the online service would know the attacker was there." [consumer.ftc.gov/ blog/ how-secure-mobile-app]
The cybersecurity diagram example "Mobile app security" was created using the ConceprDraw PRO software extended with the Network Security Diagrams solution from the Computer and Neworks area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

This example of cloud computing system architecture diagram was created on the base of picture in the post "Sending Windows 8 Push Notifications using Windows Azure Mobile Services" from the Nick Harris .NET blog.
"The goal of Windows Azure Mobile Services is to make it incredibly easy for developers to add a cloud backend to their client apps be it a Windows 8, Windows Phone, iOS or Android application. ... Mobile Services today provides:
- Structured Storage
- Server Logic ...
- Auth ...
- Push Notifications ...
- Common tenants of Windows Azure Services
- Scale ...
- Diagnostics ...
- Logging ...
What are Push Notifications?
The Windows Push Notification Services (WNS) enables you to send toast, tile, badge and raw notifications from the cloud to your Windows Store applications even when your app is not running. Push notifications are ideal for scenarios when you need to target a specific user with personalized content.
The following diagram depicts the general Lifecycle of a push notifications via the Windows Azure Notification Service (WNS). We’ll walk through the steps shortly but before doing so I thought it would be important to call out that as a developer implementing a push notification scenario all you need to do is implement those interactions in grey and the applications/ services in blue."

The diagram example "Push Notification Lifecycle Overview" was created using ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Azure Architecture solution from the Computer and Networks area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

The vector stencils library "AWS Mobile Services and Game Development" contains 7 icons: AWS Cognito icon, AWS Mobile Analytics icon, Amazon SNS icons, AWS Device Farm icon, AWS Mobile Hub icon, Amazon GameLift icon.
Use it to draw Amazon Web Services architecture diagrams with ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software.
"AWS Mobile Hub lets you easily add and configure features for your mobile apps, including user authentication, data storage, backend logic, push notifications, content delivery, and analytics. After you build your app, AWS Mobile Hub gives you easy access to testing on real devices, as well as analytics dashboards to track usage of your app – all from a single, integrated console."

"Amazon Web Services offers a comprehensive suite of products and services for video game developers across every major platform: mobile, console, PC and online. From AAA console and PC games, to educational and serious games, AWS provides the back end servers and hosting services for your game studio." [aws.amazon.com/ gaming/ ]
