Building Secure Android Authentication: Defending Single Sign-On Ecosystems Against Modern Identity Threats

Abstract:

Mobile applications have become the primary gateway to digital services, making authentication one of the most critical components of the Android security ecosystem. As organizations increasingly adopt Single Sign-On (SSO), federated identity, and cloud-based authentication services, developers must balance seamless user experiences with robust security against an evolving landscape of identity-focused attacks. Vulnerabilities such as token theft, insecure OAuth implementations, phishing, deep-link hijacking, session fixation, malicious application impersonation, and device compromise continue to expose millions of users to account takeover and data breaches.
