External Attestation
A patented external attester verifies the app and device are secure before they're allowed to proceed.
Zero Trust mobile attestation — banking, fintech, e-commerce. Fake clients never reach your backend.
Login proves who someone claims to be — not that the request came from your genuine app.
Stolen passwords still look valid. Without app authenticity, identity is theater.
Repackaged or hooked clients (Frida, instrumentation) speak as if they were yours.
Rooted devices, jailbreaks, emulators, Magisk — attacker-controlled runtimes.
MITM on the mobile↔backend path strips or forges traffic mid-flight.
Once a fake client is trusted, backends become open business-logic APIs.
Approov operates on the principle that the app and device are compromised until proven otherwise — unlike approaches that rely solely on client-side hardening, which puts trust in an environment the attacker controls.
A patented external attester verifies the app and device are secure before they're allowed to proceed.
Security policy and critical decisions happen in the Approov Cloud, so they can't be tampered with client-side.
The backend verifies a signed JWT on the edge or backend, so attackers never learn why an attempt failed.
Register new app releases so Approov knows which builds are genuine.
The SDK collects and sends app + device integrity measurements.
Approov checks measurements and issues a cryptographically signed JWT.
The token indicates whether the app/device validly attested.
Your API verifies the JWT before serving the request.
Attestation, dynamic pinning, secrets, and analytics — designed to sit alongside the stack you already run.
Secures the API channel against MITM. Certificates can be rotated over the air — without the pain of static pinning releases.
Push new security policies and threat detections instantly. No app-store resubmission required.
API keys live in the cloud, not the app binary.
Visibility into rooted devices, emulators, and blocked traffic — so you can track ROI.
Only a genuine app can talk to the backend. Everything else is blocked by default.
Integrates alongside WAFs and edge platforms like Fortinet and Cloudflare. The token doubles as a bot-scoring signal.
Which app/API to test first, which threats matter most (attestation, secrets, cert pinning, API abuse), and what success looks like.
~4 weeks typical implementation — 2 weeks integration + 2 weeks validation — with flexible extension for larger orgs.
We manage integration into your existing backend, WAF, or API gateway — Approov stays next to Fortinet, Cloudflare, and your current edge stack.
Runbooks, knowledge transfer, and local Arabic/English support so your team can operate Approov confidently after go-live.
