Everything You Need from Guardsquare
Comprehensive features designed to accelerate your security programme and reduce risk across the entire development lifecycle.
DexGuard & iXGuard (Obfuscation)
Multi-layered code obfuscation for Android and iOS through data encryption, control-flow obfuscation, code virtualisation and name obfuscation.
RASP - Runtime Self-Protection
Detects and responds to runtime attacks - rooting, debugging, hooking, emulators, and tampering - in real time within the app itself.
Anti-Tampering & Integrity Checks
Verifies app integrity at runtime and prevents execution if the app binary has been modified or repackaged by an attacker.
Anti-Debugging & Anti-Emulator
Detects and defeats debuggers, dynamic instrumentation and code changes, and emulated or virtual environments used for analysis.
ThreatCast Analytics
Real-time visibility into threats against your published app, so you can validate RASP checks and forward detections into your own SIEM.
AppSweep (Mobile App Security Testing)
Automated static and interactive mobile app security testing that prioritises findings against OWASP MASVS categories.
Is Guardsquare Right for Your Team?
Guardsquare describes its offering as multilayered app protection unified with automated security testing, for developers and security teams protecting Android and iOS apps.
Guardsquare Is a Good Fit For
- Android and iOS engineering teams hardening release builds against reverse engineering and tampering
- Security and AppSec teams that need pre-release testing and post-release threat monitoring in one place
- Financial services teams securing mobile banking and payment apps
- Gaming & entertainment, retail & e-commerce and healthcare teams protecting apps and in-app transactions
Why Teams Choose Guardsquare
- Harden Android and iOS release builds against reverse engineering, tampering and runtime attacks
- Test apps for vulnerabilities before release and monitor them for threats after publication
- Use compiler-based, polymorphic protection so no two protected builds look the same
- Work toward data-privacy, financial-services and healthcare compliance goals with the same protection layer
What You Gain with Guardsquare
Compiler-based, polymorphic protection
Guardsquare builds in data encryption, control-flow obfuscation, code virtualisation and name obfuscation, so protected builds vary each time and are harder to reverse engineer.
Runtime self-protection (RASP)
DexGuard and iXGuard act on tampered system libraries, emulators, virtual environments, root or jailbreak privileges, function hooks and dynamic instrumentation at runtime.
Fast, guided setup
Guardsquare's guided workflow reduces protection configuration to two steps and is proven to take less than a day.
Pre-release testing with AppSweep
AppSweep runs static and interactive mobile app security testing and prioritises findings against OWASP MASVS categories.
Post-release monitoring with ThreatCast
ThreatCast gives real-time visibility into threats against published apps and can forward detections into your own SIEM or fraud-detection system.
Compliance-relevant hardening
Guardsquare positions its protections as helping meet data-privacy (GDPR, CCPA, LGPD), financial-services (PSD2, PCI) and healthcare (FDA, EU-MDR) requirements.
