Binary Code Obfuscation, Anti-Reversing - Android & iOS

Last updated November 29, 2023 by Appdome

Learn to Prevent Code Obfuscation in Mobile apps, in mobile CI/CD with a Data-Driven DevSecOps™ build system.

Why is Obfuscation Efficient Against Reverse Engineering?

Decompilers have reached a maturity level that allows them to easily recover source code from mobile apps. Binary code obfuscation proved itself as an efficient first line of defense against reverse engineering attempts by hackers. What sets various obfuscation solutions apart is several things: (1) Ease of use (specialized compilers to post-build tools), (2) Performance (some obfuscation methods might impose a performance penalty), and (3) the reference threat level (expertise and time needed to break the defense).

How does Appdome Implement Binary Code Obfuscation?

In iOS, the application’s executable manifests as binary code. Appdome shuffles the code around, so that when the reverse engineering tool attempts to determine the target of a reference, it will appear as though it points to some arbitrary location. On a large scale, this renders the code completely unintelligible. However, the application must contain enough binary code to make the shuffling effective, otherwise it is advisable to use Appdome Flow Relocation as an alternative.

In Android, shared-libraries constitute the native-code part of the app. Appdome uses the loading mechanism of shared libraries in Android and modifies it so encrypted libraries can be loaded. Then, when integrating Binary Code Obfuscation, the native libraries that come with the application get encrypted by using a unique key.

When an attacker attempts to open the protected libraries in a reverse engineering tool, the applications will fail at recognizing the file as binary code.

Prerequisites for Using Binary Code Obfuscation:

To use Appdome’s mobile app security build system to Prevent Code Obfuscation , you’ll need:

Appdome account (create a free Appdome account here)
A license for Binary Code Obfuscation
Mobile App (.ipa for iOS, or .apk or .aab for Android)
Signing Credentials (see Signing Secure Android apps and Signing Secure iOS apps)

Prevent Code Obfuscation on Mobile apps using Appdome

On Appdome, follow these 3 simple steps to create self-defending Mobile Apps that Prevent Code Obfuscation without an SDK or gateway:

Upload the Mobile App to Appdome.
1. Upload an app to Appdome’s Mobile App Security Build System
2. Upload Method: Appdome Console or DEV-API
3. Mobile App Formats: .ipa for iOS, or .apk or .aab for Android
4. Binary Code Obfuscation Compatible With: Obj-C, Java, JS, C#, C++, Swift, Kotlin, Flutter, React Native, Unity, Xamarin, and more
Build the feature: Binary Code Obfuscation.
1. Building Binary Code Obfuscation by using Appdome’s DEV-API:
  1. Create and name the Fusion Set (security template) that will contain the Binary Code Obfuscation feature as shown below:
  2. Follow the steps in Sections 2.2.1-2.2.2 of this article, Building the Binary Code Obfuscation feature via Appdome Console, to add the Binary Code Obfuscation feature to this Fusion Set.
  3. Open the Fusion Set Detail Summary by clicking the “...” symbol on the far-right corner of the Fusion Set. Copy the Fusion Set ID from the Fusion Set Detail Summary (as shown below):
    
    Figure 2: Fusion Set Detail Summary
    Note: Annotating the Fusion Set to identify the protection(s) selected is optional only (not mandatory).
  4. Follow the instructions below to use the Fusion Set ID inside any standard mobile DevOps or CI/CD toolkit like Bitrise, App Center, Jenkins, Travis, Team City, Circle CI or other system:
    
    Build an API for the app – for instructions, see the tasks under Appdome API Reference Guide
    
    Look for sample APIs in Appdome’s GitHub Repository
2. Building the Binary Code Obfuscation feature via Appdome Console
  
  To build the Binary Code Obfuscation protection by using Appdome Console, follow the instructions below.
  1. Where: Inside the Appdome Console, go to Build > Security Tab > TOTALCode™ Obfuscation section.
    Like all other options in ONEShield™, Binary Code Obfuscation is turned on by default, as shown below:
    Figure 3: Binary Code Obfuscation option
    Note: The App Compromise Notification contains an easy to follow default remediation path for the mobile app end user. You can customize this message as required to achieve brand specific support, workflow or other messaging.
  2. When you select the Binary Code Obfuscation you'll notice that your Fusion Set you created in step 2.1.1 now bears the icon of the protection category that contains Binary Code Obfuscation
    
    Figure 4: Fusion Set that displays the newly added Binary Code Obfuscation protection
  3. Extra Configuration with Binary Code Obfuscation:
    Favor App’s Size
    Automatically detect and exclude publicly available elements from being obfuscated, to reduce overall application package size.
  4. Click Build My App at the bottom of the Build Workflow (shown in Figure 3).
Congratulations! The Binary Code Obfuscation protection is now added to the mobile app
Certify the Binary Code Obfuscation feature in Mobile Apps

After building Binary Code Obfuscation, Appdome generates a Certified Secure™ certificate to guarantee that the Binary Code Obfuscation protection has been added and is protecting the app. To verify that the Binary Code Obfuscation protection has been added to the mobile app, locate the protection in the Certified Secure™ certificate as shown below:

Figure 5: Certified Secure™ certificate

Each Certified Secure™ certificate provides DevOps and DevSecOps organizations the entire workflow summary, audit trail of each build, and proof of protection that Binary Code Obfuscation has been added to each Mobile app. Certified Secure provides instant and in-line DevSecOps compliance certification that Binary Code Obfuscation and other mobile app security features are in each build of the mobile app

Using Threat-Events™ for Code Obfuscation Intelligence and Control in Mobile Apps

Appdome Threat-Events™ provides consumable in-app mobile app attack intelligence and defense control when Code Obfuscation is detected. To consume and use Threat-Events™ for Code Obfuscation in Mobile Apps, use AddObserverForName in Notification Center, and the code samples for Threat-Events™ for Code Obfuscation shown below.

The specifications and options for Threat-Events™ for Code Obfuscation are:

Threat-Event™ Elements	Prevent Code Obfuscation Method Detail
Appdome Feature Name	Binary Code Obfuscation
Threat-Event Mode
OFF, IN-APP DEFENSE	Appdome detects, defends and notifies user (standard OS dialog) using customizable messaging.
ON, IN-APP DETECTION	Appdome detects the attack or threat and passes the event in a standard format to the app for processing (app chooses how and when to enforce).
ON, IN-APP DEFENSE	Uses Appdome Enforce mode for any attack or threat and passes the event in a standard format to the app for processing (gather intel on attacks and threats without losing any protection).

With Threat-Events™ enabled (turned ON), Mobile developers can get detailed attack intelligence and granular defense control in Mobile applications and create amazing user experiences for all mobile end users when Code Obfuscation is detected.

The following is a code sample for native Mobile apps, which uses all values in the specification above for Binary Code Obfuscation:

Important! Replace all placeholder instances of <Context Key> with the specific name of your threat event context key across all language examples. This is crucial to ensure your code functions correctly with the intended event data. For example, The <Context Key> could be the message, externalID, OS Version, reason code, etc.

Using Appdome, there are no development or coding prerequisites to build secured Mobile Apps by using Binary Code Obfuscation. There is no SDK and no library to code or implement in the app and no gateway to deploy in your network. All protections are built into each app and the resulting app is self-defending and self-protecting.

Releasing and Publishing Mobile Apps with Binary Code Obfuscation

After successfully securing your app by using Appdome, there are several available options to complete your project, depending on your app lifecycle or workflow. These include:

Customizing, Configuring & Branding Secure Mobile Apps
Deploying/Publishing Secure mobile apps to Public or Private app stores
Releasing Secured Android & iOS Apps built on Appdome.
