Regulatory News:
Verimatrix (Paris:VMX) (Euronext Paris: VMX), the leader in
powering the modern connected world with people-centered security,
today announced unprecedented new protection for Bitcode-enabled
iOS applications. Publishing an app to Apple’s App Store with
Bitcode enabled allows Apple to optimize the app’s code for each
target device.
For the first time, developers are now able to provide
much-needed anti-tamper protections for the fast-growing Bitcode
iOS market. Through a new, Elastic Anti-Tamper feature,
Verimatrix’s family of award-winning Application Shielding
solutions now feature powerful technology that compares application
actions to that of when it was first launched by the user.
The ongoing comparison identifies potentially dangerous
tampering by cybercriminals and offers unmatched security for
Bitcode apps and their associated data. Until now, it was a
challenge to apply anti-tamper technology to Bitcode since Apple,
and not the developer, creates the final form of the software in
order to optimize it for each device.
“Apple’s push to expand the use of Bitcode among developers is
usually unnoticed by end users, but it presents a challenge for
developers wanting to apply anti-tamper technology – and we’re
pleased to play an integral role in designing new anti-tamper
approaches that prevent hackers from accessing sensitive data,”
said Martin Bergenwall, senior vice president of products at
Verimatrix. “Our Elastic Anti-Tamper technologies answer a
significant need in the industry. It serves as yet another
differentiator for our family of application shielding solutions
that are relied upon by many of the world’s top brands. This
non-stop innovation is the fuel for Verimatrix’s continual success
in the software security space.”
The company also plans to provide developers additional
Bitcode-related app protection tools that use a novel crowdsourcing
approach to further identify bad actors. Slated for general
availability in Q4 2020, the upcoming protection layer employs a
consensus server that harnesses the power of the app’s entire
installed base to identify tampering. It reinforces Verimatrix’s
commitment to providing developers with security services that work
even if the final format of code is updated or changed by Apple in
the future. That will serve as yet another first in the
industry.
Offering this considerable time saver and enhanced protection,
Verimatrix’s Elastic Anti-Tamper capabilities help position
developers as well-tuned, security-minded professionals who
prioritize the safety of their end users and their data. For more
