Encryption

Database encryption

iOS Simulator

For Appfigurate Simulator, we rely upon you and your Mac's security to secure your app metadata records. The database that stores your app metadata records is not encrypted and is located in the host macOS filesystem:

~/Library/Application Support/Appfigurate/

This allows us to share your app metadata records across all iOS Simulators where Appfigurate is installed.

Android Emulator

For Appfigurate Emulator, we rely upon you and your Mac's security to secure your app metadata records. The database that stores your app metadata records is not encrypted and is located in the Android Emulator's file system:

/data/data/nz.co.electricbolt.appfigurate/

The Appfigure SE tool can be used to copy the iOS shared database stored in the host macOS filesystem (see iOS Simulator above) to and from the Android Emulator.

Physical devices

For device builds (installed from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store), the database that stores your app metadata records is encrypted on device.

App metadata exports & backup

Exported app metadata is secured using the following:

• Passphrase derivation function uses 11-rounds of bcrypt.

• App metadata blob is encrypted with AES256.
