Make API Protection easy. Eliminate manual work, SDKs, and network complexity in your mobile API protection journey today!
Mobile Applications are filled with APIs for critical actions and workflows like sign-up, login, purchase, payment, balance inquiry, password functions, and more. At the same time, attackers can access these APIs using either brute force attacks, like credential stuffing, or via modified, compromised, controlled, or weaponized mobile apps and devices. But, not all WAF vendors have a mobile offering and, those that do, offer limited compatibility and defense options. Appdome's mobile API protection is the ONLY solution that runs on top of any WAF to stop all unauthorized access to APIs, including brute force attacks and hyper-targeted API-level attacks, purpose-built for each API.

Protecting mobile APIs is about preventing unauthorized access, not just brute force attacks. Appdome's MobileBOT™ Defense addresses both. Armed with True Device Attributes™, source telemetry from immutable Application, Install, and Device fingerprints, and real-time session risk signals—Appdome can transform any WAF into a Mobile API Firewall. Using Appdome, mobile brands can stop brute force attacks, detect auto-clickers, deepfakes, geo-fraud, spyware, keyloggers, and advanced ATOs. Eliminate the need for separate fraud systems. Leverage your current infrastructure to centralize defense, scale performance, reduce cost, and stop mobile API abuse before it starts.

Legacy API defense relies on session tokens and ephemeral cookies to trust API requests. The problem is that tokens and cookies can be sent in clear text and replayed by attackers on spoofed applications, devices, or installs, or by attackers with stolen credentials. Appdome's MobileBOT™ Defense solution addresses these gaps by combining application-level rate limits and immutable application fingerprints to block brute force attacks with detailed session risk data to detect API risks such as impersonated users, applications, or devices. The fingerprints and session risk data are protected both at rest and in transit, delivering end-to-end protection against API attacks.

Appdome API protection enables mobile brands to rapidly defend against brute force credential stuffing, DDoS and similar attacks generated by bot farms, bot scripts, and via fake, virtual, or emulated devices, and weaponized mobile apps. To do so, mobile businesses can rate limit application connection requests and provide an immutable application fingerprint for the real client mobile app. This fingerprint is passed as part of the TLS handshake and allows any industry-standard Web Application Firewall (WAF) to distinguish the legitimate app from fake or tampered apps and malicious connection requests, stopping bot attacks easily.

To avoid detection and remain off banned device lists, attackers will spoof applications, installations, devices, mask their location, and use automated programs to perform actions within apps. Legacy API defense has no access to True Device Attributes™ and, beyond a short-lived token or cookie, has no visibility into the authenticity or state of the application, install, or device making the API request. MobileBOT™ Defense has complete visibility into the authenticity or state of the application, install, or device at every API request and can detect location spoofing, deepfakes, etc. to boot.

Different APIs need different protections to prevent Account Takeover (ATO) attacks. For example, at sign up, a mobile brand might care about automated gestures, keystrokes and clicks because this signals fake users. But at login, the mobile brand might care about deepfakes, spyware, social engineering, AI-generated scams, and other attacks. Appdome anti-bot defense allow mobile brands and enterprises to protect APIs, Hosts, and URLs from the threats that matter most and use industry-standard Web Application Firewall infrastructure to enforce each policy.

Add IDAnchor™ to the signed API payload to use a persistent layer of mobile device identity in every mobile API request. With IDAnchor, each API request contains an OS-independent device identity, a device ID match score, and threat signals that prevent mule accounts, bots, spoofed devices, and unrecognized devices from connecting to APIs. Gain high-confidence validation during each API request and block malicious devices and ATOs. Enforce session trust, even when attackers mimic user behavior and real devices.

Appdome's IDAnchor™ treats mobile brands as the root authority of identity in mobile apps. IDAnchor™ delivers the only identity chain of trust for mobile APIs, customer accounts, and high-value events and transactions inside Android & iOS apps. This chain of trust ensures all API sessions originate from a legitimate, unaltered, and trusted app, install, and device. With IDAnchor, detect suspicious environments, device compromise, application substitution, and protect or feed threat signals to CIAM, IDV, and KYC workflows.

Safe and At-Risk Session headers deliver dozens of metadata intelligence parameters such as device state, connection risk, and geo spoofing detection. This data—including timestamps, device details, and geo-source info—integrates with any WAF for real-time monitoring and bot activity blocking. Use enhanced threat mapping to specific users and sessions, enabling precise rules and automated enforcement during key events like login, password reset, and transactions. With full visibility into API abuse and attacks, defend with confidence.
