Overview
The attack surface of applications is rapidly increasing, with more than 25,000 vulnerabilities identified in 2022 alone. Additionally, Zimperium revealed there was a 138% increase in critical Android vulnerabilities discovered in 2022, while Apple iOS accounted for 80% of the zero-day vulnerabilities actively being exploited in the wild. As mobile cyberattacks surge, it is imperative to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities in order to ensure business continuity and growth. In order to strengthen their mobile security posture effectively, companies must understand specific threats, use advanced detection tools, and assess the potential impact of those threats.
The Zimperium Mobile-First Security Platform™ unifies Mobile Endpoint Security and Mobile Application Security, unleashing powerful new insights and capabilities for app development, security, and compliance responsibility across the entire mobile footprint. Through a ‘single pane of glass,’ customer teams have centralized access to and management of their mobile security posture and a comprehensive set of capabilities to adapt to emerging threats dynamically.
Zimperium’s Mobile Application Protection Suite (MAPS), specifically, enables organizations to secure apps during development and runtime by automating and integrating security into the mobile application lifecycle. MAPS provides app scanning, app shielding, and runtime protection of sensitive cryptographic keys all within one solution. MAPS is the only unified solution that combines comprehensive in-app protection with centralized threat visibility.
Zimperium recently expanded its award-winning application shielding solution with a no-code option, which is designed for organizations that require fast time to market or have limited development resources. As app teams grapple with limited resources and increasing pressure to release secure applications quickly, Zimperium’s no-code application shielding option offers a viable alternative to apply essential protections in minutes. It safeguards the application from potential exploitation, both when the app is available on public app stores and during runtime when it is being used on end-user devices.
Key Capabilities / Features
MAPS Application Security Key Capabilities include:
During Development
-Continuously identifies security and compliance risks in binaries
-Quickly isolates vulnerable code and recommends easy fixes
-Assesses SBOMs for supply chain risk
-Integrates directly into the existing DevOps workflows
Once Published
-Protects app source code with code obfuscation and app shielding
-Provides visibility into and response to tampering attempts
-Protects encryption keys with world leading white-box cryptography
On End-User Devices
-Continuously monitors for threats
-Enables the mobile app to proactively protect itself and take pre-configured actions
-Provides protection even without a network connection
-Allows in-app security updates to be made in real-time without publishing a new version
Mobile application risks start in development and persist throughout the app’s entire lifecycle, including when running on an end user’s device. Zimperium’s Mobile Application Protection Suite consists of four products with a centralized dashboard to view threats and create response policies. It is the only unified platform that combines centralized visibility with comprehensive in-app protection, combining both inside-out and outside-in security approaches to help enterprises build and maintain secure mobile apps.
zScan: Discover and fix compliance, privacy, and security issues within the development process before publicly releasing your apps.
zKeyBox: Protect confidential data by securing cryptographic keys with white-box cryptography so they cannot be discovered, extracted, or manipulated.
zShield: Harden and protect the app with advanced obfuscation and anti-tampering functionality to protect the source code, intellectual property, and data within the application.
zDefend: Enable the mobile application to detect and proactively protect itself by taking actions on the end user’s device, even without network connectivity.
Zimperium protects more than five billion mobile sessions per year and its enterprise deployments are highly scalable and deployable on any cloud platform. Companies including the U.S. Department of Defense, JP Morgan Chase, TikTok, HSBC, Danaher, and Medtronic are now relying on Zimperium to protect their customers and themselves.
How we are different
Zimperium protects apps from in-development to on-device, with comprehensive threat visibility throughout.
MAPS provides these key capabilities:
-Mobile Application Security Testing: Discover and fix compliance, privacy, and security issues during the development and pre-release testing before publicly releasing your app binaries.
-Application Shielding: Harden and protect apps developed in-house with advanced obfuscation and anti-tampering functionality to protect the source code, intellectual property (IP), and data within the application.
-Mobile Application Vetting: Identify potential security vulnerabilities, privacy concerns, and compliance issues that may arise from using third-party apps.
-Runtime Visibility & Protection: Enable the mobile application to detect and protect itself by taking actions on end-user devices, even without network connectivity.
-Cryptographic Key Protection: Protect confidential data by securing cryptographic keys with white-box cryptography so they cannot be discovered, extracted, or manipulated.
Unlike other disjointed point solutions on the market that burden enterprises with integration, Zimperium's unified security platform seamlessly integrates security throughout the entire lifecycle while providing a centralized risk dashboard. It provides a cohesive platform that allows all members of the development and support teams to communicate using a single record of authority. This allows everyone to see the same information and avoid delays in communication and resolution, improving team morale and cross-team collaboration.
In fact, Zimperium was named the leader in Quadrant Knowledge Solutions’ 2023 SPARK Matrix™ for In-App Protection, highlighting Zimperium’s commitment to securing the mobile-first enterprise and safeguarding against evolving application threats.
Zimperium’s app security solutions seamlessly integrate into CI/CD workflows and Security Orchestration tools to allow the team to maintain their time to market. This turns mobile security into a business enabler, providing additional value by enabling customers to proactively meet compliance mandates.
