The exchange of information in the digital era has become a general need for society. However, the information sent often has a public or confidential nature. Therefore, security is needed so that confidential information remains safe. Cryptography is a field of knowledge used to secure information using encryption and decryption processes. One of the cryptographic methods used is the permutation method, which changes the layout, sequence, or structure of data into a form that is difficult to understand without knowledge of the exact key. Implementing cryptography using the permutation method in Android-based applications can increase the security and privacy of user data, as well as protect sensitive information from unauthorized access. This research aims to implement permutation method cryptography in Android-based applications to protect the confidentiality or privacy of user data. By using the permutation method, the sequence of bits or characters in the data is scrambled so that it is difficult for unauthorized parties to understand. The research results show that the implementation of permutation method cryptography in Android applications can provide a higher level of security in maintaining data confidentiality. However, it is worth considering that simple permutation methods may not be secure enough to deal with more sophisticated attacks. Therefore, choosing a stronger cryptographic method needs to be considered to achieve a higher level of security. In conclusion, implementing cryptography using the permutation method in Android-based applications can increase the security and privacy of user data. The permutation method is able to randomize the sequence of bits or characters in the data so that it is difficult for unauthorized parties to understand. However, for a higher level of security, it is necessary to consider stronger cryptographic methods.

Power transformer theft, a pervasive issue disrupting critical infrastructure, necessitates the development of cost-effective and energy-autonomous security solutions. This paper presents the design and implementation of a detection-focused anti-theft framework that integrates a Raspberry Pi Zero W, camera module, and passive infrared (PIR) motion sensors powered by a solar system for continuous monitoring. The system is designed for remote, off-grid deployment, utilizing a headless Raspberry Pi powered by a 5V solar panel and power bank to ensure energy autonomy. Upon motion detection, captured images are processed on the edge device using OpenCV’s Haar Cascade classifier, optimized for upper-body detection to minimize false positives and verify human presence. Captured images are processed locally on the edge device using OpenCV’s Haar Cascade classifier to confirm human presence before an alert is sent to the mobile application, emphasizing real-time operation and low latency. Once an intrusion is confirmed, the images are saved locally and uploaded via the Secure File Transfer Protocol to a custom-developed Android application. The app provides a dedicated remote monitoring interface, enabling secure file transfer and system access, while providing users with immediate notifications and image management capabilities. The system emphasizes low power consumption, real-time operation, and low deployment cost. Tests over 200 triggered events under varied environmental conditions achieved 90% detection accuracy with an average latency of 4.5 s. Solar autonomy was maintained for approximately 24 h under normal operation. It is concluded that the integration of solar power, edge computing of images, and mobile monitoring provides a feasible, scalable, and financially viable framework for securing transformers, especially in resource-constrained environments.

Android continues to innovate, and biometric systems particularly fingerprint sensors must operate with high efficiency. However, the main challenge lies in the communication between hardware and software, which often causes high latency, excessive power consumption, and protocol incompatibility between components. As a result, authentication speed decreases and system stability is compromised, especially on mid- to low-range devices. This study explores various implementations of Android-based fingerprint systems, focusing on how sensor modules interact with the microcontroller or Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) and the operating system through a hardware-software co-design approach to evaluate integration efficiency across all layers. The analysis reveals that conventional protocols such as Bluetooth or serial connections still cause delays, while improvements in drivers and the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) can significantly reduce latency. As a solution, the researchers propose a co-design optimization approach that utilizes data flow normalization within the HAL and adopts lightweight communication protocols to accelerate the verification process. Based on the test results, this approach successfully improves efficiency—authentication time is reduced by up to 35% and power consumption decreases by approximately 15%. Therefore, the efficiency of communication between hardware and software becomes a key factor in enhancing the performance and reliability of fingerprint systems on Android devices.

The synchronization of mutex and semaphore mechanisms is an important technique in operating systems for managing concurrent resource access in multi-threaded environments. In the Android operating system, which relies on thread-based programming to maintain performance and responsiveness, these two mechanisms play a vital role in preventing race conditions and ensuring data integrity. A mutex is a locking object that ensures that only one thread can access a specific resource at a time, while a semaphore controls access to a limited number of resources by counting the number of threads that can access them simultaneously. In Android, these mechanisms are implemented using the Lock class for mutexes and the Semaphore class for semaphores, both of which can be used to control synchronization between threads in Android applications. This paper will discuss the application of these two mechanisms in the context of shared resource management, as well as a comparison of their performance and advantages in dealing with complex multi-threading scenarios on Android. Emphasis will also be placed on the challenges faced in using these two mechanisms in Android applications, as well as how proper programming can avoid deadlocks and improve application efficiency.

The development of information technology has encouraged institutions, including hospitals, to adopt digital systems to improve operational efficiency. One important aspect is the employee attendance system, which previously relied on fingerprints. This method has limitations, such as difficulty detecting when fingers are not in ideal condition and causing queues during peak hours. This research aims to design and implement an Android-based attendance system using the Eigenface facial recognition method as a faster, safer, and more accurate alternative. Eigenface works by extracting facial features using Principal Component Analysis (PCA), thus being able to efficiently recognize individual identities. The system was developed with MySQL database integration and tested on employees of Khalishah General Hospital. The implementation results showed that the system can recognize faces with a good level of accuracy and increase the effectiveness of attendance recording. Furthermore, the use of facial-based attendance can minimize the potential for fraud and increase user comfort because it does not require physical contact. Thus, the Eigenface method has proven feasible to be implemented as a modern attendance solution to support employee attendance management in hospital work environments and other institutions.
