Security Event Listener

The SecurityEventListener class exposes a way to be notified of security issues that occur both during initialization of the SDK and at runtime. This is done via a single Alarm event:

Alarm

Fired when a security issue is detected.

public class MySecurityEventListener implements SecurityEventListener {
  ...
  public void alarm(Severity severity, SecurityEvent event) {
	  TransactionManager.getInstance().showToast("[Security Alarm] Severity: " + severity + ", Event: " + event);
  }
  ...
}

If a security issue is detected, the Alarm event will be raised. The severity of the error will be indicated by the severity event parameter. Possible values are:

• LOW
• MEDIUM
• HIGH

The event parameter will indicate which issue was encountered. Possible values are:

• ROOT
• TAMPERED
• INSTALLED_FROM_UNTRUSTED_STORE
• HOOK
• EMULATOR
• DEBUGGING
• DEBUG_ENABLED
