9 Sept – SAP is Rapping (AKA Mobile App Wrapping) Mentor Monday
Looking forward to a fun and productive session with the SAP Mentors next Monday September 9th @ 4pm EST. I will unveil my “rapping” talents along with SAP’s Mobile Application “Wrapping” capabilities courtesy of Mocana. Wrapping allows you to take ANY mobile app and wrap it with a layer of security that can even pass FIPS-140 requirements in “just a few seconds”. We will also spend some time updating the SAP Mentors on SAP’s Mobile Secure cloud strategy. Guest speakers are Tushar Patel, Director, Product Marketing at Mocana Corporation, and Britt Womelsdorf, Director of Mobile Secure in the Cloud at SAP.

Oh, this is a story we know so well
About a mobile application written to sell
Created by a Homie to Change the World
The App was a Hit
But the Homie didn’t know a thing about securing the bits
So…
What can be done?
Well…
In just a few seconds
That Homie can wrap it as tight as Fort Knox
Using SAP’s Mobile App Protection
By a gang called Mocana
Making the Rest of this Beat
Oh so Neat
Word Out…

Hey Bryan,
interesting! Will you mention that Mocana is an _additional_ layer of security on top of the one you still need to implement in your app and backend services?
Mocana eases the pain of implementing secure local storage and secure communication, but that still leaves 7 of the 10 OWASP Top Mobile Risks that developers need to address on their own.
Week 6 of the OpenSAP Mobile Development Course will address some of those, by the way.
Frank,
Thanks for the comment. We will definitely dig into the details regarding what "Wrapping" addresses and any missing security aspects it can not cover. We may even structure the conversation around the list of 10. Thanks again, and we are looking forward to an informative discussion on Monday.
I will be on there....maybe late....4 pm est...is 3pm my time...which means I will be in carpool line to pick up my son from school. 😛
