What are the potential security risks involved in exchanging data between an Android app and PHP scripts?

One potential security risk is the exposure of sensitive data during the data exchange process. To mitigate this risk, it is essential to implement secure communication protocols such as HTTPS and encrypt the data being exchanged between the Android app and PHP scripts. 

// Implementing HTTPS in PHP script
if ($_SERVER['HTTPS'] != "on") {
    header("Location: https://" . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
    exit();
}
