App Threat Report

Introducing our first App Threat Report, a quarterly analysis of different topics in mobile application security produced by Promon’s Research team.

Securing today’s mobile applications requires protecting not only the app code while at rest, but also the entire app process when in runtime. As attacks have grown more sophisticated, so too have the tools and techniques to mitigate and protect against these attacks.

Repackaging attacks

This report explores repackaging, a code alteration or injection attack primarily directed at Android apps, in particular banking and finance apps.

In the report, you will find a short primer on repackaging, followed by a review of the hundreds of financial services apps across various sectors, install bases and regions to assess the overall level of security against this common attack.
