Appdome detects when mobile applications are run in emulated, virtualized, dual space, Android Player, and other automated environments. These platforms can pose a serious risk to in-app account and transaction integrity. They can also be used to create rebate and referral program abuse, point inflation, as well as fake in-app transactions, fake account set up and more. Appdome will signal if they are run in these emulated or virtualized environments, on virtualized devices, and virtualized operating systems, including via Android Debug Bridge (ADB), and more. When these environments are present, defend the app or gather data, and determine the optimal attack response.

Appdome's Prevent Keystroke Injection feature detects and defends mobile applications from keystroke injection attacks. Keystroke injection is used to enter or flood data, taps and other actions in mobile apps to masquerade as real users filling out forms, submitting requests, or performing transactions. Keystroke injection can also be used to deceive users by triggering workflows from the background that force users to enter sensitive information, such as password reset or fake login screens, or pop-up dialogs and notifications requesting malicious permissions.

Appdome's Prevent Auto-Clicking feature detects & defends mobile apps against tap injection. Tap injection attacks are used in click fraud to impersonate user clicks on ads or sponsored content in mobile apps to generate fraudulent impressions or clicks. Tap injection attacks are also used in loyalty program and referral program abuse, or to cheat in mobile games, by impersonating real users tapping on buttons, collecting rewards or performing game actions. Appdome makes these attacks are a thing of the past.

Appdome's Block Android Debug Bridge (ADB) feature detects and defends mobile apps from all forms of attacks using ADB 'input tap', 'keyevent', 'input swipe' and other commands. With these commands, ADB can be used to simulate or create fake events in mobile apps by sending input events directly to the device, or executing shell commands on connected Android devices or emulators. Detect ADB commands that simulate touch events, key presses, gestures, and other input actions. Gather data and control what, when and how to enforce these defenses.

Appdome's Prevent Android Virtualization detects and defends mobile apps when Android Virtual Machine (AVM) is used to execute synthetic fraud attacks. AVM allows attackers to simulate taps, swipes, and gestures on a virtual screen and trigger actions or interactions within the mobile app. AVM can also be used to emulate device sensors such as accelerometer, gyroscope, GPS, and orientation sensors, allowing attackers to spoof sensor data and events. With Appdome's Prevent Android Virtualization feature, mobile brands can gather data and control what, when and how to enforce these defenses.

If a mobile device containing KYC information from a mobile app is infected with spyware, it could lead to a data breach, exposing customer identity, account information, and other confidential data to an attacker. Spyware can capture keystrokes, login credentials, two-factor authentication (2FA), biometric authentication data and other personal information entered by mobile app users, allowing attackers to carry out fraudulent activities, gain unauthorized access to customer accounts or harvest sensitive information. Appdome offers a comprehensive mobile anti-spyware suite to detect and defend mobile apps from spyware.

Geolocation fraud occurs when fraudsters manipulate or spoof their geographic location to deceive mobile businesses during the KYC process. To do so, fraudsters can use virtual private networks (VPNs), proxy servers, Fake GPS, location spoofing and other techniques. Faking geolocation allows fraudsters impersonate the identity of legitimate mobile customers, bypass KYC controls, and open accounts as though they are a genuine account holder, making it more difficult for businesses to detect fraudulent activity in Android & iOS apps. Appdome offers a comprehensive geo-location compliance suite to detect & defend mobile apps from geo fraud.

Appdome's Threat-Score™ empowers mobile brands with attack-specific fraud risk profiles in their mobile app. Threat-Scores are generated and passed to the mobile application when attacks occur, without any server call out. They can be linked to specific Android & iOS events, and customer userID, sessionID and DeviceID. Threat-Score's fraud risk profiling is used to identify at-risk transactions, reduce or eliminate chargebacks, and customer support expenses. Threat-Scores are also used to prioritize enhanced due diligence procedures in the mobile app itself, to reduce mobile fraud exposure and improve consumer trust.
