Is storing secret keys (internal use passwords and such) on iPhone source code and project resources (such as plist files) secure?
Obviously nothing is 100% secure, but can this information be extracted easily from an installed app?
How do you recommend storing these keys to use them in the source code?
Just in case, this question is not about storing user passwords.
Found basically the same question with a longer discussion:
How would you keep secret data secret in an iPhone application?
To sump up: it seems there’s no official way to securely store secret keys in the app binary.
Sorry for posting a duplicate question.
