Tune, respond, and contain without re-deploying. Get continuous protection without re-shielding or resubmitting to the app store.
Promon Control™ is a runtime configuration layer for Shield for Mobile protected apps.
Help your security, fraud, and product teams to adjust protection behavior, policies, and threat responses for mobile apps in production. Enable them to compress incident response from days to hours, with no app rebuild required.
Defined by you. Guided by intelligence. Enforced by Shield.
Promon Control is a post-deploy app security runtime control layer. With it, teams can enforce runtime protection management after an app is already live. That enables them to update policies, adjust threat responses, and push configuration changes to apps protected by Shield for Mobile without re-shielding, rebuilding, or triggering an app store submission.
Security teams can respond to new threat intelligence. Fraud teams can tighten or relax app-level responses based on live signals. Product teams can enforce upgrade policies and manage vulnerable versions already in the field.
Promon Control is part of the Promon runtime intelligence platform, connecting protection and telemetry in one operational layer.
Push policy updates and protection rules across your entire install base - instantly, selectively by device, or by segment
Respond to emerging threats without triggering a full release cycle to update policy
Enforce customer-specific risk postures without fragmented one-off builds
Update protection live
Adjust protections and tune responses across your app estate after deployment, in near real time.
React as threats evolve
Respond to emerging threats without a new release cycle, so your defenses keep pace with attackers.
Manage from one place
One unified way to set and enforce security policy across apps, devices, environments, and customers.
Threat actors don't wait for your next release cycle. Promon Control lets security and SOC teams push updated runtime protection rules, adjust response policies, and activate emergency containment, all without rebuilding or resubmitting the app.
Push protective updates across your entire install base as needed
Activate staged rollouts of new protections to reduce the blast radius
Emergency blocks available when a critical threat emerges before a patched version reaches users
Policy control without code changes
Control separates security configuration from app code. Teams can enforce organization-specific risk postures, adjust responses to match current fraud signals, and tailor policies per customer segment without fragmented one-off builds or developer overhead.
Different customers can run different runtime responses based on their fraud, risk, and UX requirements
Tighten or relax app-level responses based on live fraud signals
Structured policy layer maintained independently of your app codebase
App lifecycle control
Manage old or vulnerable app versions in the field without being constrained by app-store propagation timelines. Define protection and triggered response settings on affected versions, enforce upgrade policies, and protect your users and your business while your fix is in transit.
Protect users on unpatched versions while a fix propagates through the store
Enforce upgrade policies on vulnerable versions
Retain control of your app's security posture throughout its full lifecycle
Promon-driven threat intelligence, zero lift
Promon's own threat intelligence feeds directly into your policy layer. Control pushes updated protection and response rules based on observed abuse patterns and closes the mitigation window with no further action required from your team.
Receive Promon-driven policy updates automatically as new threats are identified
Continuous feedback loop between telemetry from Insight and response rules in Control
Your app security posture adapts automatically as the threat landscape evolves
key capabilities
What makes Promon Control™ different
Fully autonomous post-compile runtime protection
Promon Control is the control plane for Shield for Mobile, allowing for continuous protection, autonomous threat response and granular policy tuning for the same deep-tech protection layer that already guards billions of transactions daily. No integration risk. No added attack surface.
Protection and telemetry in one integrated layer
Promon combines runtime protection and live telemetry in a single integrated layer. That means the intelligence informing your policy updates comes from the same platform enforcing them across 3 billion deployments in a continuous feedback loop.
Response time compressed from days to hours
Traditional threat response requires re-shielding, testing, and app-store re-deployment, a cycle that can take days and leave customers vulnerable. Control eliminates those steps entirely. Teams can push updated policies and protection rules across their entire install base on-demand.
Selective, segmented rollouts
Control doesn't force you to update your entire device inventory at once. Push changes to your full install base or target specific customer segments, app versions, or risk groups. Staged rollouts mean you can validate changes before they reach your full user base.
Zero developer involvement for policy updates
Security configuration changes go through Control and not your app code. Security, fraud, and product teams act independently, without opening a ticket or waiting for a sprint. Developer productivity stays high; your security posture stays current.

FAQ
Your questions answered
Does Promon Control replace Shield for Mobile?
No. It is an add-on configuration management layer that works on top of Shield for Mobile. Control requires Shield to be deployed. Shield remains the runtime enforcement agent inside the app. Control gives teams the policy layer to tune what Shield enforces after deployment.
Do we need to rebuild or resubmit our app to use Control?
No. Policy updates, protection rules, and configuration changes pushed through Control reach your install base without any app rebuild or app-store resubmission. Your security team act independently of your release cycle.
Who is Promon Control for?
Control is built for security operations, fraud, product, and mobile security architecture teams at organizations running Shield for Mobile protected apps, particularly those in banking, FinTech, gaming, and media where fast threat response is business-critical.
Can different customers run different policies?
Yes. Control supports customer-specific security policies, meaning different customers can run different runtime responses based on their individual fraud, risk, and UX requirements and all managed from the same platform.
How does Control connect to Insight for App Security?
Control and Insight form a closed loop. Telemetry from Insight surfaces threat signals; Control translates those signals into updated policies and protection rules pushed to your protected apps. Together, they give you both the intelligence and the means to act on it without leaving the Promon platform.
When is Promon Control available? (TBD)
Promon Control enters Private Preview in November 2026, available to a select group of design-partner customers. Limited Availability and General Availability timelines will be confirmed ahead of launch.
