    Multi-layered & polymorphic protection

    iXGuard's comprehensive static & dynamic analysis protections are achieved through layered obfuscation & encryption techniques complemented by automated RASP checks & built-in malware defenses. As part of the multi-layered approach, iXGuard obfuscates all checks. Additionally, the polymorphic nature of protection ensures that each build of your app is uniquely protected.

    Defend against static analysis

    If a threat actor decompiles your app, iXGuard ensures your code will be as resistant to reverse engineering as possible. iXGuard provides iOS obfuscation for classes, fields, arithmetic instructions and more; code virtualization; API call hiding; and many additional security features. Crucially, iXGuard’s protection is polymorphic — each build has a different security configuration, preventing a threat actor from reusing their prior knowledge.

    dexguard-dynamic-analysis

    Counter dynamic analysis

    iXGuard automatically injects RASP checks, preventing threat actors from tampering with apps at runtime. What’s more, each build features different RASP checks in different locations, ensuring threat actors can’t reuse prior knowledge. iXGuard’s RASP injects checks like jailbreak detection, debugger detection, repackaging detection, code tracing detection, hook detection and more.

    Misconceptions about iOS mobile app security

    It’s easy to get caught up in the myths and misconceptions about how secure your mobile app will be when it’s released into the wild, but perhaps the biggest misconception is that iOS security is better than Android. 

    Even in the iOS ecosystem, you need to make it difficult for malicious actors to manipulate your application. One of the best ways to do this is to implement code hardening and runtime application self-protection.

    What our customers are saying

    • The new workflow provides clear instructions, is easier for those new to obfuscation and requires less fiddling. Since data is uploaded automatically in the new workflow portal, it is easier to auto-configure. It's also nice not having to store the license on all our machines in the right place, and likewise, with the protection configurations.
