Abstract:
Methods and systems for protecting sensitive data and applications on a mobile device. In an embodiment, a mobile device processor of a mobile device downloads, from a digital wallet server computer, a mobile wallet application including a white box software development kit (SDK) which includes code protection processes, then obfuscates, by running the code protection processes of the white box SDK, consumer financial data and consumer authentication data and stores the obfuscated consumer financial data and consumer authentication data in a regular memory of the mobile device. The process also includes protecting, by the mobile device processor running the white box SDK, sensitive applications stored in the regular memory which execute during a transaction from attack, and re-obfuscating, by the mobile device processor, at least one of the consumer financial data and the consumer authentication data according to a predetermined time interval.
