It's reported that FB Messenge is the most secure App for instant messaging service. Let's see if FB messenger is secure enough or not. I'll evaluate it according to OWASP Mobile Top 10 risks.

The first one of OWASP Moble Top ten risks is M1- "Insecure Data Storage".

For example

1.Sensitive data left unprotected

2.Sensitive data in temporarily/cache files

3.Weak or global permissions(ie SD Card)

Let's extract FB Messenger from Angela's smart phone and take a look. You guys could take a look at my blog to see what's going on.

I'm pretty sure the Signal app may be more secure. http//www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2494534,00.asp

Actually I live in Taiwan. So I could use FB or any IM I like. No need to worry about Great Firewall here.
