Verimatrix XTD Accessibility Abuse Detector™ provides enhanced protection for Android applications

Regulatory news:

Verimatrix (Euronext Paris: VMX), a leader in bringing people-centric security to today’s connected world, today announced the general availability of Verimatrix XTD Accessibility Abuse Detector™, which builds on continuous, successful discoveries of significant Android security threats and provides much-needed protection GDPR.

Verimatrix XTD and its suite of cybersecurity solutions have been helping customers identify threats to Android mobile applications, such as tampering and abuse of Android accessibility features, for many years. However, the company has now expanded its offering to include proactive features that leverage AI and machine learning to detect keystroke logging, credit card theft, and comprehensive protection against overlay attacks. These important features strengthen the protective shield built into mobile applications, allowing Verimatrix XTD Accessibility Abuse Detector™ to provide robust, multi-layered protection against today’s mobile application threats. With innovative technology and a commitment to staying ahead of bad actors, Verimatrix products combined with XTD Labs’ threat monitoring and investigation services help customers protect their applications and sensitive data.

An additional benefit is the Verimatrix XTD Accessibility Abuse Detector™ feature, combined with all other features and benefits included in the offering, that helps customers eliminate 9 of the top 10 OWASP mobile threats. The OWASP Mobile Security project aims to educate developers and security teams on how to create secure mobile applications. Understanding the risks associated with mobile applications helps you avoid pitfalls and protect user data. The OWASP Mobile Security Testing Guide provides comprehensive guidelines for security testing of iOS and Android applications. The Mobile Application Security Verification Standard provides programming guidance and testing standards.

“Any opportunity to dramatically reduce the risk of personal information theft, account data breaches, misuse of login credentials, or credit card fraud is welcome,” said Tom Powledge, chief cybersecurity officer at Verimatrix. “Verimatrix XTD Accessibility Abuse Detector™ is a great feature because it actively prevents overlay attacks, one of the most common mobile application exploits we see in banking and financial services. This is a real benefit for customers as they can suspend infected application instances to avoid financial loss or credential theft.”
