Android APK Security Hardening Expert Needed

Job ID: 39607833

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I'm in search of an experienced Android security engineer to enhance the security of my APK for public distribution. The primary goal is to protect the APK from reverse engineering, focusing on Android 8.0 and above. This project is not about modifying permissions but involves comprehensive APK security hardening.

Key Requirements:
- Implement anti-debugging checks, with a focus on countering apktool.
- Obfuscate Java/Kotlin/Dex code to prevent reverse engineering.
- Encrypt assets, resources, and strings.xml for added security.
- Add anti-emulator checks to safeguard the APK.
- Implement tamper detection and signature verification to ensure APK integrity.
- Optionally, protect native libraries using C/C++ or dynamic loading techniques.

Expected Deliverable:
- A fully protected and signed APK ready for deployment.

Tools and Methods:
- You may use or recommend tools such as DexGuard, Allatori, Obfuscapk, ProGuard (with advanced configuration), or your own proven methods.

Ideal Skills and Experience:
- Proven experience in APK protection, beyond just decompiling and repacking.
- Expertise in implementing anti-debugging measures.
- Strong understanding of APK obfuscation and encryption techniques.
- Familiarity with tamper detection and signature verification processes.

Please apply only if you have a solid track record in securing APKs against reverse engineering and are well-versed in the latest security practices for Android applications.
