SafetyNet Playground

SafetyNet Playground consists of an Android application and an associated web service that can be used as a sample for developers attempting to securely implement Google's SafetyNet attestation API.

Google's SafetyNet service can help your app maintain a level of assurance that the device you are executing on has not been tampered with. There are many ways to design how you'll do attestation requests, such as using a client-only or client-server architecture. SafetyNet Playground demonstrates a tamper-resistant client-server attestation flow.

This sample app will attempt to make a REST request to a web service. This request will be successful only if the SafetyNet service attests that your device is CTS compatible.
