Using Appdome to Add MFA to a Mobile App by Fusing Gemalto Mobile PKI SDK to the App
Using Appdome, mobile apps will use Gemalto’s Mobile PKI SDK to authenticate users and secure App’s data, as if Gemalto’s Mobile PKI SDK was natively coded to the app. Appdome for Gemalto’s Mobile PKI SDK is compatible with mobile apps built in any development environment including Native Android and iOS apps, hybrid apps and non-native apps built-in Xamarin, Cordova, and React Native, Ionic and more. This streamlines implementations, cuts development work, and ensures a guaranteed and consistent integration of Gemalto’s Mobile PKI SDK to any mobile app.
Using Appdome, there are no development or coding prerequisites. For example, there is no Appdome SDK, libraries, or plug-ins to implement. Likewise, there are no required infrastructure changes and no dependency on file management or any other feature of the app. The Appdome technology adds Gemalto’s Mobile PKI SDK and relevant standards, frameworks and more to the app automatically, with no manual development work at all.
Appdome is a mobile integration platform as a service (iPaaS) that allows users to add a wide variety of features, SDKs, and APIs to Android and iOS apps. Using a simple ‘click to add’ user interface, Appdome allows anyone to easily implement Gemalto’s Mobile PKI SDK to any mobile app – instantly, no code or coding required.
