Rogue Mobile App Detection

Mobile Application Security

With AppSentry, you can be sure that the only app available to users is the one you've chosen.

AppSentry is an advanced AI-powered solution designed to monitor the presence of mobile applications on both official and unofficial stores. The alternative store landscape is extremely dynamic, with new platforms emerging and disappearing rapidly, making constant monitoring crucial. To meet this need,at Mobisec we conduct a continuous census activity on more than 700 unofficial stores, analyzing new openings and closures in real time to ensure up-to-date monitoring.

Through this systematic surveillance activity, it is possible to detect the presence of an application in different variants: from identical or partially identical code, to modified versions, 'wrapped' or integrated within other applications with potentially malicious purposes. All collected data is centralized within the Mobisec Console, providing structured and immediate access to information essential for effective security monitoring.

AppSentry, in short.

Continuous monitoring

The app’s presence on all stores is analyzed, including the most hostile and lesser-known ones. Any suspicious changes are notified promptly, specifying where and how they occurred, and everything can be easily monitored through the Mobisec Console.

AI Integration

Similar images or logos, altered codes, or modified versions of the app are identified, even when the differences are not immediately visible. AI ensures an accuracy that goes beyond simple manual analysis.

Mobisec Unique Reference

By integrating a lightweight library into your app, a unique string is associated, enabling easier tracking and allowing for more in-depth searches. This technology acts as a “quality stamp” to identify unauthorized versions.
