Abstract
ABSTRACT As the smart phone market is drastically expanding, there is a steady growth of recent vicious activities such as data manipulation, billing fraud, identity theft, and leakage of personal information that are security threats to Social Network Games(SNG). Due to the threats, Strong development standard is required for security enhancement of SNG. Nonetheless, short life-spans, additional expenses, and the necessities to provide a sound game service hinders developers from reaching their security goals. Therefore, this research investigates the weak points of SNG through memory manipulation experiments based on the currently provided SNG services. In addition, the research presents counter measures and security enforcements that are light in service load and simplistic which can be applied in the developing process.Keywords : Social Network Games, Android Game Security, Memory Manipulation Received: Nov. 13, 2014 Revised: Dec. 15, 2014 Accepted: Dec. 29, 2014Corresponding Author: Eun Jin Kim(Kyonggi University)E-mail: ejkim777@kgu.ac.krISSN: 1598-4540 / eISSN: 2287-8211Ⓒ The Korea Game Society.
