Flutter is a user interface toolkit from Google which is primarily used to develop mobile applications but can also be deployed to create web and desktop apps. With Flutter, we can develop applications for both IOS and Android using the same source code. This dovetails neatly with Bugfender, our remote logging service that allows users to collect logs for everything in the application.

As developers, we know the pitfalls of the internet – the gateways that malicious actors can exploit to steal private data, siphon money and generally wreak havoc. But if we’re going to build watertight applications, it’s essential that we keep updating our knowledge base and prepare for every possible assault. In this post, we’re going to discuss five particularly common forms of attack.

When we speak to our customers, they tell us that Bugfender is great for capturing application logs and then pinpointing the logs of a specific user. By pulling all the logs from a developer’s mobile and web apps and centralizing them in a single dashboard, Bugfender gives that developer a 360-degree sweep of their entire user base. But what if you want to use this data somewhere else? What if you could provide this data within an Elasticsearch database?
