APP-ONLY PHOTOS protects any mobile app photos taken by the application. When a photo is taken by a user within the application, Appdome intercepts the “saving” request and saves the photo to the application’s private files, which would ensure those photos receive the same level of protection as other data stored in the same protected location.
This will ensure that all the app photos are protected privately and inaccessible to other applications. Furthermore, with Appdome’s TOTALData Encryption the app photos and sensitive data will be encrypted at runtime using industry-standard AES 256 cryptographic protocols.
