UIPasteboard security

I need to store information on application that always need to be read when open application. But I don't want user copy/dump/or edit it. So the question is : "Is UIPasteboard can solve this problem?" is it security? and if not, what else is suitable to use.

Thank you very much.

Edit: Is there have other solution that can solve "delete and reinstall application?"

Solution

  • UIPasteboard can be overwritten at any time, and I wouldn't call it secure.

    You might want to consider encrypting and serializing the data. Then when you need to access it, decrypt it and read it into memory.
