If you have a rooted phone and you have debugging enabled on your device then your device is at risk for attack!

Here is a video showing what this application helps protect you from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=ah7DWawLax8#t=429s
This application can help guard against this in conjunction with a password, pin, or pattern protected device.
For this application to work and be effective you must have a lock screen enabled password, pin, or pattern lock.
This application will turn adbd on when the phone is unlocked and will turn it off when the screen goes off.
This application works with Tasker, you can use Tasker to enable and disable adbdSecure on a wide variety of different conditions.
I'll add more features to this as time goes on :)

A must have app Edit: Recently not working as service only works when Adbdsecure screen is up. As soon as adbdsecure screen is exited, service gets killed. ---- A must have app for rooted phone. Works exactly as described.

Excellent Finally something that works. I have tried a few others, but they never disabled ADB. This one perfectly disables ADB when the screen is off, and re-enables it after I type in my lock screen password. I am even amassed how fast it reacts. I would have thought that there might be a few seconds of delay, but this one disables and re-enables ADB right away, even faster than it takes the lock screen to fully disappear after password has been entered.
