Description
Issue:
Rooting is the process of gaining administrative or privileged access to the Android OS. Without root detection, attackers or malware may access sensitive information stored on the device.
Recommendation from pentester:
Developers should employ better methods to detect whether an app is running on a rooted device.
Please refer to attached excel for details.
