Official Description: AndroidX Security

CommonsWare’s Notes

This artifact offers:

• EncryptedFile, offering a stream-based API around an encrypted file; and

• EncryptedSharedPreferences, offering a SharedPreferences API implementation backed by an encrypted file

Both of these use Android’s KeyStore and hardware-backed encryption where available, though this is configurable.
