Appdome's Detect Fake Location protects mobile apps from instrumentation, libraries and frameworks used for spoofing geolocation data. These libraries allow attackers to programmatically manipulate location data, simulate movement patterns, and bypass geo-fencing features. Appdome monitors GPS APIs and detect hooks, patching, swizzling and injections to prevent unauthorized modification or access to GPS data. Appdome’s Detect Geo Desync prevents manipulation of GPS coordinates, time zone settings, and accelerometer readings, which attackers use to deceive location-based services and undermine the integrity of location-dependent apps and services.

Appdome's Detect Fake GPS Apps detects and defends mobile apps from interactions with mock location providers and location spoofing mobile applications. Mock location apps allow attackers to simulate and replace real GPS data, allowing the attacker to override the real location of the device. Location spoofing apps allow attackers to set a custom location, simulate movement, and automate location changes in real time. If a mock location provider or location spoofing app interacts with your app, detect the attack, gather data and determine the best response for your brand with ease.

Appdome’s Detect Teleportation feature identifies location spoofing and unrealistic location jumps, protecting apps from fake inputs and the injection of fake GPS data to maintain accurate and reliable location-based services. By verifying whether transitions between geographical points are realistic within the elapsed time, Appdome helps preserve the integrity of apps that depend on accurate location data to deliver essential services such as navigation, personalized recommendations, and proximity-based functionalities.

Appdome's Detect VPN features detects and defends mobile applications from VPN use while using the mobile app. When a VPN is enabled on a mobile device, all mobile app traffic is routed through the VPN. The attacker can set the VPN to report any location the attacker desires. VPNs allow attackers to bypass geo-fencing restrictions applicable to content, offers and other services in the mobile app. Identify and respond to VPN activations in mobile devices ensuring users access your app in compliance with data and service policies. If a VPN event occurs, gather data and determine the best response for your brand with ease.

Appdome's geo-fencing feature equips mobile app developers with tools for enforcing location-based access controls, essential for compliance in regulated sectors like finance. By restricting or allowing access based on regions, apps adhere to regulations like US FFIEC, EU GDPR, Singapore's MAS, and KYC regulations, reducing legal risks and enhancing compliance. Geo-fencing defends against threats like location spoofing and unauthorized access, preventing fraud, fake account creation, and also allowing developers to manage banned regions directly on the platform.

Appdome's Threat-Score™ empowers mobile brands with attack-specific fraud risk profiles in their mobile app. Threat-Scores are generated and passed to the mobile application when attacks occur, without any server call out. They can be linked to specific Android & iOS events, and customer userID, sessionID and DeviceID. Threat-Score's fraud risk profiling is used to identify at-risk transactions, reduce or eliminate chargebacks, and customer support expenses. Threat-Scores are also used to design attack-specific fraud responses in the mobile app itself, to reduce mobile fraud exposure and improve consumer trust.
