As part of a mobile application for Android systems for controlling medical hardware components, a vulnerability analysis is performed with regard to potential IT security gaps.
Supplement
The vulnerability analysis is performed for Android 13. The analysis includes research in the National Vulnerability Database and the corresponding release notes for Android. Potential vulnerabilities are summarized and evaluated in terms of the risk to the app. The results are presented to the customer in writing and in tabular form and also include a catalog of measures with recommended courses of action. The documentation for the analysis is maintained in the document management tool.
