Mobile Platform Attack and Defense Evolution: From Hardware Fingerprints to Cloud-Based Risk Control
Explore the latest trends in mobile security, from dynamic device fingerprinting to cloud-based risk control. Learn how to protect your mobile services against evolving threats.
Why Mobile Security Is More Critical Than Ever
Insufficient Attention
Many organizations traditionally paid insufficient attention to mobile security, often relying on hardware IDs or system IDs to identify devices.
Privacy Issues
This approach poses privacy issues and leaves gaps that malicious actors can exploit.
Ineffective Client-Side Detection
Performing risk detection solely on the client side and returning the result to the app is no longer effective against advanced reverse-engineering or code injection tactics.
Regulatory Compliance
With the tightening of regulations and privacy protections, it's increasingly important to tackle security and compliance issues head-on.
Dynamic Device Fingerprinting and End-Cloud Collaboration
1
Client-Side Collection
Obfuscated and securely wrapped SDK collects multiple dimensions of hardware and software characteristics.
2
Cloud Upload
Collected data is uploaded to the cloud for advanced modeling and risk analysis.
3
Secure Data Transit
Proprietary security layer over HTTPS with dynamic key exchanges and secure tokens safeguards data in transit.
4
Cloud-Based Analysis
Machine learning and deep-learning algorithms accurately detect suspicious devices and evaluate risks.
