Configure specific software checks to be evaluated. More...
Configure what security patch level and OS version is required for your application to be safe. Flag if your application is running on a specific manufacturers device whose software or version of Android is deemed to be untrustworthy.
It is recommend that users have a recent security patch level and OS version to be confident your application is being run in a safe environment.
Utilize the security checks within the library to help inform or perhaps enforce that a user upgrades their device software. Define your minimum requirements for security patch level and OS version and then enable these checks using 'DeviceSoftware.enableCheck'.
Additionally preclude specific device manufactures or device models from running your application that are deemed to be a security risk. This may be relevant in certain locales where devices from a certain manufacturer are deemed to be untrustworthy.
