Appdome: Geo Compliance and Social Engineering Defense

An Intellyx Brain Candy Update

Since we last wrote about Appdome in May, 2023, they’ve added some new capabilities to their mobile cybersecurity threat defense product suite. 

Moblie apps in regulated industries such as gambling and banking depend on accurate geo location data to enforce their policies and prevent fraud. 

Appdome’s latest release detects and blocks fake and banned GPS locations, fraudulent VPNs, and teleportation attacks.

Social engineering attacks are a significant cause of incidents and breaches, and mobile phone apps are a growing source of such attacks. 

Appdome’s latest release detects and blocks mobile app takeover attempts for phishing, remote desktop control manipulations, facial recognition bypass, SIM swapping, and fake apps.   

Customers configure and automatically deploy the new capabilities the same way they use existing Appdome protections.

Appdome’s mobile app protection software deploys with the app’s CI/CD pipeline automation, and uniquely runs within the application, allowing developers to capture alerts and take immediate action.

Appdome can also send alerts to a security monitoring dashboard to alert security operations teams of a threat or incident.
