Approov protects mobile businesses by ensuring that only traffic from genuine and untampered instances of your mobile app gets processed by your back-end systems.
The App is key to enabling positive security for your API.
Approov enables software attestation for mobile apps. It allows your apps to uniquely identify themselves as the genuine, untampered software images you originally published. This prevents revenue loss from your business through unauthorised access to your APIs by scripts or bots. Such activities can result in data breaches, loss of personally identifiable information, mass fake account creation, automated game playing, additional cloud costs, etc.
Based on our customer data, typically 10-15% of the traffic on mobile APIs is not coming from your mobile app. Approov allows you to block that traffic through the simple integration of an SDK in your mobile app and registration of your app with the Approov cloud service. This is implemented without secrets or authentication decision logic being stored in the mobile app, making it very secure. A 30-day free trial is available.
Approov currently scores 79/100 in the Cyber & Data Security category. This is based on press buzz (43/100), recent user trends (falling), and other relevant information on Approov gathered from around the web.
